A Little Further North

<br>The sun sinks behind me in the west<br>This is the time of day I love best<br>Salt breezes murmur through the coconut palms<br>As the colors change, you set a scene of tropic calm<br><br>Seagulls headed back to land<br>Over the mangrove and the salt pan<br>By a lazy creek with a six pack and a fishin` line<br>Win back some memories and losin` track of time<br><br>I head a little further north each year<br>Leave the cities behind, out of sight out of mind<br>Oh, up where my troubles can all disappear<br>I head a little further north each year<br><br>Feeling the night wrap around me<br>Eases my mind`s serenity<br>Ocean waves are hummin` on the outer reef<br>These balmy days and sultry nights are a welcome relief<br><br>I head a little further north each year<br>Leave the cities behind, out of sight out of mind<br>Oh, up where my troubles can all disappear<br>I head a little further north each year<br><br>I head a little further north each year<br>Taking my mind to an easier time<br>Oh, up where there`s silence and the night sky is clear<br>I head a little further north each year
