edisto
(slow tempo)
i just came here to hang
smell the ocean, hear the waves sing
and i got good sand in my shoes
sleep in my car, sing the blues
on this dead island
i am a happy, lonely man
a million miles from nowhere in my mind
i cannot see the stars, but i know they shine
closed pavillion, closed snack bar down the road
dim lite dying from the sky above
(chorus)
edisto
six miles long and low
where i go when i want to be alone
when i want to be alone
i once lived on a cloud
but someone else lives there now
i was glad to see it was not alone
so i smiled and passed on
some might think me a nomad
with my old shoes and my old bag
but i'm not, i'm just a loner
sitting beneath this lonely cabana
and if the sun never comes up again
i wouldn't mind if i never left here
i could stay here 'til the end of time
in this cool nite-time sky
(chorus)
