Story Behind The Song
I have a long standing love of the ocean and wished I could live on the ocean's edge. It's a great place to go to and just breathe in the life in the air, the water ADN the sand....

VERSE 1
Singing salted sailors
Sleeping on the decks
The whales have all gone down
To the lower depths
Many seas to follow through
Many sailor's bait to pass
Hoping that the moon and the sky
Will cover up my past
CHORUS
My first love was a fairy tale
The days were our ship
Daily we would sail
My first love was a summer tale
The sun was our ship
Daily we would sail
Water sand castles
Build new ones
Let the old ones die away
Water sand castles
Build new ones
Let them fall to the spray
VERSE 2
Diana, she's a goddess
She sails an ivory jammer
Likes to sail in hurricanes
Through wind, water and clamor
We bathed together
'Neath a high waterfall
We dove from cliff to sea
When we heard the siren's call
REPEAT CHORUS
