The sun sinks behind me in the west This is the time of day I love best Salt breezes murmur through the coconut palms As the colors change, they set a scene of tropical Seagulls heading back to land Over the mangroves and salt pans By a lazy creek with a six pack And a fishing line Win back some memories Losing track of time I head a little further north each year Leave the cities behind Out of sight, out of mind And when my troubles can all dissappear I head a little further north each year Feeling the night wrapped around me Eases my mind in serenity Ocean waves are humming on the outer beach The balmy nights and sultry days are welcome relief I head a little further north each year Leave the cities behind Out of sight, out of mind And when my troubles can all dissappear I head a little further north each year I head a little further north each year Taking my mind to an easier time And when there's silence and the night sky is clear I head a little further north each year
