Made A Lot Of Friends We’ll Keep For Life…

We’ve been here a week or so

Now it’s finally time to go

Can’t believe how quickly time has flown

Packin’ up the bathin’ suits

Getting out the cowboy boots

That’s a sign we must be going home

Time just stopped for a little while

We were part of a tiny island

Made a lot of friends we’ll keep for life

When we get back home to Texas

And they ask us what we missed most

I’ll shrug my shoulders and I’ll smile

Early mornings on the long boat dock

Drinkin’ coffee as the sun comes up

Lazy days napping in the big deck chair

Late night dancing in the front street bar

Walking home underneath the stars

Man it’s like some dream we live down here

Last night we ate conch and lobster

Mark said it was his favorite dinner

Maybe even the best one of his life

Dining underneath the stars

Chilean wine and Cuban cigars

I smiled at him and said you could be right

And he got real quiet and he said you know

hell I worked hard all my life

I made a lot of dough

I’ve been everywhere

I don’t think it gets any better than down here

I mean the warmth and love of the people here

No crime no hate or fear

I don’t think I’m ready for the world waiting for me back there

I need me just

One more morning on the long boat dock

Drinking coffee as the sun comes up

Drinking bilikin beer in the big deck chair

Late night dancin’ in a front street bar

Makin’ love under the stars

Man it’s like some dream we live down here

Walking home underneath the stars

Hearing voices from that empty bar

Man it’s like some dream we lived down there

We’ve been here a week or so

Now it’s finally time to go

Can’t believe how quickly time has flown

Packin’ up the bathin’ suits

Gettin’ out the cowboy boots

That’s a sign we must be goin’ home
