watched the sailboats sailing, felt the salty sea wind blow

Held captive by such beauty, time's motion rocks my soul

This picture postcard morning drinking coffee on the sand

The children calling "Mommy, Mommy, come and hold my hand"

Refrão
Dance over the water

I watch the children as they play

Dance over the water

I'll be as free as them someday

My mind slips back to times when the earth was thought a square

A terrifying mystery, sea dragons lived up there

My time machine begins to work, I see the pirate ships

Enraptured till I taste some salt air upon my lips

(Refrão)

The sun is seeking rest, it's leaving now for goodbye

My wind burned face is cooled by the orange and purple sky

If only dreams were magic things, if only for a day

I'd wish that I could be a bird and simply fly away

(Refrão - 2x)
