Lyrics
Tar Beach
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Living in the city can be tough on you
Got to get away once in a while
Hope I'll see you when the day is through
Ready for a change of style
People moving here and moving there
Everybody's got routine
Looking closely at their own affairs
With never a change of scene
Chorus:
Sunshine and heat surround you on tar beach
I will meet you there
Where you can lose those city blues
I will meet you there
So many situations from day to day
The circle is turning so fast
And who is loving who need I say
Tell me how long it will last
So uncertain what the future holds
We never know what to expect
Searching for that person we are told
Love will be its effect
(chorus)
Repeat 'till fade
