Marina Songtext
von Michael Ellis

Left and right
Corners and eaves
Trees without leaves
And rain

You see
I′m not a townie
My heart is lost at sea
I guess

I'm a seashell
Not much more i can tell
I thrive in the salty breeze
Sea as far as the eye could reach

I′m a shell
I don't need no get wells
I gaze at the island
Once in a while and
I'll be sort of fine


In the hall
Children playing ball
Couldn′t hear the gulls
Even if they were there

Sometimes i
Like to walk by
The harbour pretending
I′m back there spending
The weekend at home

Cause i'm a shell
No other way in hell
Nose in the breeze
Don′t we agree
This is the best thing

I'm a shell
And not street gravel
Clement′s and Michael's
To sum up my vitals
I will be back home


It′s there with the wide
Cliffs and the hedgerows
Seagulls and tide
Spray and light
A couple of miles
You see the world ending
I'm coming home
In a little while

Yes i'm a shell
No other way in hell
Nose in the breeze
Don′t we agree
This is the best thing
We′ll ever see

I'm a shell
I don′t need no get wells
I gaze at the island
Once in a while and
I'll be sort of fine

I′m a shell
And not street gravel
Clement's and Michael′s
Two of my vitals
I will be back home
