lyrics

I reeled when I saw her, saw her today
plum blossoms pointed, pointed me the way
Meet me where I stand, meet me in the sand

The moon was a canvas stretched out across the sea
shining on the savage delight in you and me
Meet me where I stand, meet me in the sand

Captain Kidd came rolling ‘cross Tarpaulin Cove
lookin' for the brothel and a place to spend his gold
Meet me where I stand, meet me in the sand

He said “I'll take you places, I'll take you very far
freer than a bird and guided by the stars”
Meet me where I stand, meet me in the sand

So I yelled at the shepherd and I scared off her flock
“My life here ain't nothing and I'm stuck upon this rock!”
Meet me where I stand, meet me in the sand

She said “You're quiet in the fields you are not here with me
Tell me something darlin', anything... please…”
Meet me where I stand, meet me in the sand
