Catching Winds Across The Sea

Charles David Sharp


I'm sailing away south of Mobile Bay 
Just looking for a little fun 
Gotta long cool drink and come swim or sing 
I'm heading to the setting sun 
Yesterday's a memory and tomorrow's just a dream 
Today is what I'm living for 
Catching winds across the sea 
Catching winds across the sea 

The gulls and dolphins play as I catch some rays 
And I ain't seen a soul in days 
Then the wind blew light and the moon was bright 
Twinkling off the crests of the waves 
Yesterday's a memory and tomorrow's just a dream 
Today is what I'm living for 
Catching winds across the sea 
Catching winds across the sea 

My skin is burned and the water's churned 
And I'm riding down a rising swell 
Red sky at dawn, time to go home 
My light wind has gone gale 
Yesterday's a memory and tomorrow's just a dream 
Today is what I'm living for 
Catching winds across the sea 
Catching winds across the sea
