Great Big Sea

Great Big Sea - Seagulls lyrics

Dressed in her Sunday best

A kind man sat beside her

While she cried her way out West

She moved in with her cousin

Found a job down in the mall

Her friends at home were jealous

Said they'd see her in the fall

Chorus:

You know that she wants to try, never lets you see her cry

You know that she wants to try, she's got seagulls in her eyes

The people here seem really nice

But the winter's way too long

New friends, they don't understand

Her mother wrote "be strong"

She made some decent money

But nothing comes for free

The windy street, just can't compete

With the sky, the rocks and sea

Chorus

Her parents came at Eastertime

They wanted her to stay

But she bought a panel van

Moved home on her birthday

Her friends were pretty cynical

"Couldn't make it on your own..."

Now the sky's a little smaller

And it doesn't seem like home
