des and dawn - the seagull's name was nelson lyrics

Loading...

[intro]
[man whistling]

[verse 1]
well, a long time ago in ’67
a little boy was roaming on the beach
when all of a sudden he heard a plaintive cry
so near yet so far out of reach

he looked behind a rock so tall
and there before his eyes
was an oil-soaked seagull lying there
windswept with pain in its eyes

[chorus]
and the seagull’s name was nelson
nelson who came from the sea
and the seagull’s name was nelson
nelson the seagull free

[verse 2]
he fed that seagull limpets small
until that bird could fly
and when he thought it was so
he let little nelson go
and he flew above his head up in the sky

[chorus]
and the seagull’s name was nelson
nelson who came from the sea
and the seagull’s name was nelson
nelson the seagull free

[verse 3]
the time did come for the boy to go
sadness was in their eyes
but it’s not for you to criticise
for you’ve never seen a seagull cry

[chorus and outro]
and the seagull’s name was nelson
nelson who came from the sea
and the seagull’s name was nelson
nelson the seagull free

and the seagull’s name was nelson
nelson who came from the sea
and the seagull’s name was nelson
nelson the seagull free

nelson the seagull free

and the seagull’s name was nelson
nelson who came from the sea
and the seagull’s name was nelson
nelson the seagull free

and the seagull’s name was nelson
nelson who came from the sea
