By the Sea


I'm a wanderer by nature, see

My children agree with me

In the city one day I'll be

But the next I'm by the sea

 

My children agree with me

That moving is what I need

If I stay in one place I steep

Like a sitting cup of tea

 

In the city one day I'll be

Where I can be lost and free

Like a tiring honey-less bee

I softly hum c'est la vie

 

But the next I'm by the sea

And the sand is on my feet

And the restless wind agrees

I'm a wanderer by nature, see
