SITTING IN THE SURFERS BAR
WITH COFFEE AND SOME CAKE
MY MUM USED TO LOVE IT
THERE WERNT NO BETTER PLACE
LOOKING OUT TO THE SEA
AND WATCHING THE WORLD GO BY
THAT LOVELY WARM FEELING
AND NOT A CLOUD IN THE SKY

HAPPY AND SMILING FACES CAN BE SEEN FOR MILES AROUND

YOU ARE MILES AWAY BUT YET YOU STILL FEEL SO NEAR
CAUSE WE ARE SO CLOSE AND OUR FRIENDSHIP SO DEAR
I OFTEN SIT WONDERING…

when you look back you regret what had been
you woke…
