Seabeams

Like Seabeams in a dark black night
your smile shines brightly
like seabeams in a dark black night
our love will glow
Oh I’ve got to go, I’ve got to go, got to go
I’ve got to go, I’ve got to, got to go
I’ve got to go, I’ve got to go get you now

Up the north and far away, it’s written in the book
the redcurled, longlegged partygirl – it was me the one she took
and after all the daylight-night that taste became a legend
They wanted me to make her bride
sad story for her, no happy end

So I left this place to figure out
what love with you will mean to me

Oh I’ve got to go…

Way down south a thousand miles there was a one real pretty
she took me by the hand and said „I’ll die for you, no kidding“
I gave her all I had to give and maybe a bit more
she couldn’t live without a man
they found her washed upon the shore

Oh I’ve got to go…

Another place another night, the scenery was greedy
the blackhaired one became afraid of laughter and lust so seedy
She wanted me to be her man, to share my time with her alone
that idea I couldn’t stand – kiss, goodbye and gone

Oh I’ve got to go…

So I left this place to figure out
what love with you will mean to me

Oh I’ve got to go…
