Oceanside
There's a burning flame where the ocean meets the sky
'Cross the golden road see the freebirds fly
Adios farewell goodbye for another year
Now it's lonesome time how I wish you were here

White horses dance where we watched the dolphins play
Feel I could jump in the water and wash my blues away
Hear a seagull cry as I struggle with a tear
Now its lonesome time and how I wish you were here

In Oceanside
Watching the turning tide
Standing at the great divide
Wishing you were by my side

Hear a distant bell ghost ships in the night
Past the Spanish Point by the friendly guiding light
I'm an Island Man and the wild west coast is clear
Now it's lonesome time and how I wish you were here

In Oceanside
Watching the turning tide
Standing at the great divide
Wishing you were by my side:
