Down On Longboat Key

She sits and stares out the window at the water

Every night down at ....

Cafe' All alone she sips her pina colada

Talking to herself, dreaming time away

The story is that a dark haired stranger

Stole her heart many years ago

He promised her he'd come back and take her

Around the world, bring her hills of gold

Chorus: Down on

Longboat Key

Where the island sand meet the

Gulf Stream

Bridge Down on

Longboat Key

She spends her life in a dream

On Longboat

Key Down on

Longboat Key

Down on Longboat

Key. Each afternoon as the snugboats come in

She runs to meet them down at the pier

She sees the fishermen, the nets and the sunset

But she don't see him, her eyes fill with tears

She stands there looking at the crystal blue water

And in the coral she imagines pearls

She makes believe he brought them all the way from

China Then the water swirls

The blue-green water swirls

Chorus: Down on

Longboat Key

Where the island sand meet the

Gulf Stream breeze

Down on Longboat

Key She spends her life in a dream

On Longboat

Key Down on

Longboat Key

Down on Longboat

Key. Young sailors make a play to take her home

She says '

No, I'm already taken'

Oh, they just laugh when she mentions his name

She just keeps on waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting

Chorus: Down on

Longboat Key

Where the island sand meet the

Gulf Stream breeze

Down on Longboat

Key She spends her life in a dream

On Longboat

Key Down on

Longboat Key

Down on Longboat

Key.
