Laura Veirs – Seaside Haiku Lyrics

 

Seaside Haiku Lyrics by Laura Veirs

 

Somewhere beyond
These cold winds from Japan Vermillion suns
Churn the black and gold sand I drop my glove
And it rolls in the waves
I’ll give a lot
But not too much away

Ah, ah, ah, ah

In a yellow coat
She scoops up the sky Five seagulls laugh
At her flying green kite She’s been burned, too So she understands She’ll give a lot
But not all that she can

Ah, ah, ah, ah

I thought loneliness my lot, it’s true I walk the beach alone, I’m not blue Blue is the sky and the fiery flame I’ve learned from pain
Ah, ah, ah, ah

Give but don’t give too much Of yourself away
Give but don’t give too much…
