A Day On The Shore

hello mr. sea, it's nice to see you lookin' so good
but i do wonder what's beneath your waves
what do you hide from sight
whisper your secrets to me
and i'll whisper mine to you
hello mr. sun, it's nice to see shine today
you lighten up the world so bright, it's such a joy
you make me wish that
today could last forever
thank you for shinning on me
hello mr. sand, you sure stretch a long way
you feel so soft beneath my feet
i want to write with stones upon you
so i can talk with the clouds
i want to walk many miles with you
hello mr. wind, it's nice to feel you passing by
what wishes do you carry upon your breeze
if i spoke words of love
would you carry them with you
spreading the feeling around the world
hello mr. crab, it's to see you wanderin'
by the rock pools, amongst the seaweed
i hope you have a lovely day
full of kindness and joy
before you head back to the sea
hello mr. moon, nice to see you in sky
but now you're out i should probably head home
i'll use the stars beside you
to help me guide me back
i've had such a lovely day on the shore

Chasing The Sun

well i'm just a man with a head full of dreams
and my dreams won't let me sleep
so while the sky is blue what i'm gonna do
i'm gonna chase the sun around the world
now i've got nothin' against the moon
but the sun plays my favourite tune
it gives me a song to sing-a-long
i'm gonna chase the sun around the world
i'll chase it to oslo
i'll chase it to rome
and where the sun is shining,
that'll be my home, that'll be my home
i don't want to be stuck under the fallin' rain
or be alone on the midnight train
so on a boat, or on a plane
i'm gonna chase the sun around the world
in the hours of broad daylight
the world is full of sheer delight
i don't want to see the sun set for me
i'm gonna chase the sun around the world
i'll chase it to toronto
i'll chase it to st. ives
where the sun shining,
is where i'll feel alive, where i feel alive
so around and around the world i go
singin' a song wherever i roam
i'll play the part of ramblin' boy
bringing you the sun in my song
bringing you the sun in my song

Nature's Remedy

I've been lookin' inside
tryin' and hopin' to find
some time to relax my mind
lookin' for some space and time
i thought i'd found the path to take
but lookin' back that was a mistake
there has to be another way
to make it through the darker days
and maybe i've just got the blues
and i don't know how to see them through
tomorrow they may be gone
so i'll keep walkin' until the dawn
and i don't know if you do
but i know that i do
like to take a walk outside
get myself realigned
'cos it's when i'm in the open air
i lose my worries and my cares
i get myself back to me
thanks to natures remedy
some people meditate
others they just sit and wait
and some people just demand
forget the world is in their hands
so when you've got the blues
and don't know how to see them through
take a walk in the open air
let nature be your healer
and then you'll be feelin' fine
clouds will clear, the sun will shine
realise now's the time
make the most of your life

Little World

little leaf from the big old tree
little wave in the big blue sea
little cloud in the big blue sky
little me in the world so wide
little town in a big country
little river flowing so free
little guitar playing a big song
little me feeling big emotions
little words make a big long book
little dreams from a big long sleep
little sun gives us the big day
little stars shine in the night
little earth in a big universe
little flower brings peace to you
little now becomes the growing past
all little things make this big life
