jimmy buffett – delaney talks to statues lyrics
delaney talks to statues
as she dances ’round the pool
she chases cats through roman ruins
and stomps on big toadstools
she speaks a language all her own
that i cannot discover
but she knows i love her so
when i tuck her ‘neath the covers
chorus:
father, daughter
down by the water
sh-lls sink, dreams float
life’s good on our boat
delaney draws me pictures
she finger paints the sand
we chase the dogs and hop like frogs
then i do my bad handstands
she’s growin’ up too fast for me
and askin’ lots of questions
some i know the answers to
and some i’m lookin’ for suggestions
chorus:
father, daughter
born by the water
surf’s up, sun’s down
life in a beach town
and some of the things i’ve seen
maybe she won’t have to see
but there’s a lot i want to p-ss along
that was handed down to me
delaney talks to statues
as she dances ’round the pool
she chases cats through roman ruins
and stomps on big toadstools
she speaks a language all her own
just a little like her mother
and she knows i love her so
when i tuck her ‘neath the covers
chorus:
father, daughter
down by the water
sh-lls sink, dreams float
life’s good on our boat
sh-lls sink, dreams float
life’s good on our boat
