The Thin Flow

The sun came up

The water went down

And I took

A hard look around

Then, I saw him lyin’ there

Couldn’t believe what I saw

He was looking …50 miles offshore

And then he says



Son, just step away

From your mind

Look in the water

And far behind


I look down the beach

Towards the glistening sand

I seen the most beautiful girl

And she happened to be so grand

I thought to myself About what the old man said

And I couldn’t manage to

Get it out of my head


Son, just step away

From your mind

Look in the water

And far behind



I look to my left

My girl to my right

I was thinking

It’s going to be a long night

And what should I do with my life

Should I just get up and go

Instead, stayin here

I’ll take control



Son just step away

From your mind

Look in the water

And far behind
