SPIKE'S LAMENT

Take you back to
Take you back to
a time when you were one with the waves
Take you back to when having when fun
beat winning them trophies everyday

Take you back to
Take you back to
when you could hear the Ocean Blue
Take you back to when She would say
soon a storm will be on Her way

Somethings missing
Something is missing
like the joy in your eyes
Read the signs
You could read the tides
On eastern winds
the surf’s gonna rise rise rise

Take you back to
Take you back to
a time when you were one with the waves
Take you back to when having fun
beat winning them trophies everyday

Take you back to
Take you back to
when you could hear the Ocean Blue
Take you back to
when She would say
a southern breeze will be on Her way
Take you back to when She would say
a southern breeze will be on Her way
a southern breeze will be on Her way

RAIN BRINGS CHANGE

S'MAGIC DAY
