The Inconvenience Of Selling It To The Sea


There's a full moon rising over Sagadahoc Bay
you swear to god you love him more then yesterday
the tide is going out, you're taking off your shoes
you've realized that you have everything to lose

you walk on to the flats, look up to the sky
Seguin smiles cause she catches that twinkle in your eye
whatchu gonna do?
You close your eyes cause you don't know what to say
you don't know the price you may have to pay

you sold your soul long ago
to the salty waves and the easterly wind that blows
now you want it back
you've came to retrieve it, to give it to a man
who treats you nice who wants to take your hand

the sky she blows black, the gulls they start to cry
you know how many women like you have tried?
you're a smart girl, we know you understand
time and tide will never wait on a man
