INTRO:     


 
The Texas coastline hold her
                   
close just like a lady

And in their time  they've
                      
weathered a storm or two.

The river feed her waters like I
 
feed your memory.

The deeper I go the more I'm
         
turning blue.
 
The sandy beaches drift in time
                        
and the changing tide I know
 
won't bring me back to yesterday
          
and the Gulf of Mexico.
 
The sails out on the water will
 
come take you away.

When your ship comes in I know
            
its time to go

and the waves along the seawall
     
tell me nothings here to stay

and no man is an island but I'm
            
still all alone.
 
I'm weighing anchors from the past
                            
as the south winds start to blow
   
sailing out of yesterday
         
and the Gulf of Mexico.
                          
I'll be sailing out of yesterday
                              
and the Gulf of Mexic.
