Lyrics for Margaritaville (With Lost Verse) by Jimmy Buffett:
| | | Artist: | Jimmy Buffett |
| | Album: | Unknown | | Track: | Margaritaville (With Lost Verse) | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 154 | | | | Lyrics: | Got out of town on a boat for the southern islands
On a reach before a following sea
We were
making for the trades on the outside
And the downhill run to Papeete
Off the wind on
this heading lie the Marquesas
We got eighty feet of waterline nicely making way
In a noisy
bar in Avalon I tried to call you
But on the midnight watch I realized why twice you ran
away
(Chorus)
Think about how many times I have fallen
Spirits are using me, larger
voices calling
What heaven brought you and me cannot be forgotten
I have been around the
world
Looking for that woman girl
Who knows love can endure
And you know it will. And
you know it will.
When you see the southern cross for the first time
You understand
just why you came this way
Cause the truth you might be running from is so small
But its as
big as the promise, the promise of a coming day
And I'm heading all the way, my dreams are
dying
And my love is an anchor tied to you, tied with a silver chain
I have my ship and all
her flags are a-flying
She is all I have left and music is her
name
(chorus)
So we cheated and we tried and we tested
And we never failed to
fail, it was the easiest thing to do
You will survive being bested
Somebody strong comes
along, makes me forget, forget about loving you
And the southern cross | | | | Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link | |
