Sanibel
Along the beaches of Sanibel
I’ve got a story, I have to tell
I met a girl
I brought her here
She left me by the pool
So I ordered a beer
She was working all day long
So I just stayed here and wrote her this song
Sanibel, I left my heart on your shore
Sanibel, I left but wanted much more
Sanibel, it was just love right from the start
Sanibel, take care of my heart
There she goes again on the campaign
Me, I hang around, buy a bottle of champagne
A dozen oysters, no, make it more
A lobster or two and back out of the door
Run it back, put it on ice
Just another day in our paradise
Sanibel, I left my heart on your shore
Sanibel, I left but wanted much more
Sanibel, it was just love right from the start
Sanibel, take care of my heart
One of these days
I’m gonna stay right here
On my island lost in the sun
With beach everywhere
I’ll be without a care
And stop this damn life on the run
Wouldn’t that be fun?
So much fun
Hello Captiva, farewell sun
Lying on the beach, the evening’s begun
The journey back to Sanibel
A candlelight dinner and so much more that I can’t tell
The final hours, it has to end
Not a problem, we’ll be back again
Sanibel, I left my heart on your shore
Sanibel, I left but wanted, so much more
Sanibel, it was just love right from the start
Sanibel, I gave you my heart
Sanibel, be good to my heart
