Oldest Surfer On the Beach

The sun's dropping out of the picture

Soon be time to move

Hasn't been a real big day

But I don't have a thing to prove

I've still got the old nose rider

I still surf old style

I'll go on out beyond the breakers

Sit alone and rest awhile

There's nothing that I want to do

No place I'm trying to reach

Only time is now more precious to

The oldest surfer on the beach

The oldest surfer on the beach

I stopped searching for perfection

Many waves ago

What really matters is the here and now

And that's about all I know

Catch me a big old roller

Sun setting on the sea

Riding in on her glassy shoulder

The water going gray like me

There's nothing that I want to do

No place I'm trying to reach

Only time is now more precious to

The oldest surfer on the beach

The oldest surfer on the beach

The oldest surfer on the beach

The oldest surfer on the beach
