Lyrics for Turnabout by Jimmy Buffett:
| | | Artist: | Jimmy Buffett |
| | Album: | Before The Beach | | Track: | Turnabout | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 81 | | | | Lyrics: | As large as life she stood there
Kissed my cheek and called my old nickname
And though
several years had passed
Both of us still looked quite the same
I said hi relaxed a
bit
Then asked her how she'd been all these years
She told me she was feeling
fine
Came to see a friend who lived up here
Told me she had finished school
And
then went on to college for a year
I asked if she had married
Slowly down her cheek there
came a tear
She said just an itchy eye
It must be the weather way up here
Told her I
can't stand the cold
It freezes me and I can't feel my ears
We talked a bit about
Mobile
And thought about how it has never changed
I told her I was a comin' home
To
spend some time and hoped it wouldn't rain
She asked if she could see me then
And we could
spend some time now and then
Because I lived so far away
Was still no chance why we could
not be friends
I drove her to the waiting plane
Watched that big jet streaking
through the sky
Thought about the sad young girl
And the time that I just saw her
cry
That flame must still be burning bright
I think I'll catch a later flight
today
It's time for me to go on home
And spend a day or two down by the bay | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
