I Must Fly

Bye said the keeper to his wife
Who is the laziest of all
He has to go and man the lights
She’s gonna be there by his side
In later life when he goes
On a wednesday night
Pacific ocean

I’m catching up slowly with the tide
Who’ll be there gently by your side
Who is the lowest of the low
Who’s gonna tell me that
I’m old enough to know
Enough to know better
On a wednesday night
Pacific ocean

In three months he’ll be back to see the wife
She is the laziest of all
Who’ll be there gently by your side
Said good-bye to the keeper and his wife
I must fly
