lyrics

Out for breakfast, left my wallet in the bathroom of a diner,
now I'm stranding at the bus stop thumbing trucks for Carolina,
walk the beaches, lonely beaches, dip my hand in and pick up creatures,
the sun is fading, the tide is closing, I'm in the dunes dosing off.

Since I left town, my friends grow older,
My dog is gone, my girlfriend sold her,
southern accent, surfers body,
I built a bike and met my hawtie,
sleep till noon, wake the brain up,
Turkish coffee fills my cup,
Sent a letter, did you get it?
nothing special but don't forget it now.
