Galveston, oh Galveston I still hear your sea winds blowing I still see her dark eyes glowing She was twenty one When I left Galveston Galveston, oh Galveston I still hear your sea waves crashing While I watch the camp flashing I clean my gun And dreamed of Galveston I still see her standing by the water Standing there, staring out to sea And is she waiting there for me? On the beach where we used to run Galveston, oh Galveston I am so afraid of dying For I wipe the tears she's crying For I watch the seagulls lying in the sun Galveston Galveston I still see her standing by the water Standing there, staring out to sea And is she waiting there for me? On the beach where we used to run Galveston, oh Galveston I am so afraid of dying For I wipe the tears she's crying She was twenty one When I left Galveston |
