The Beachcomber

Delilah walks down by the docks
Sleeps under the boardwalk till noon
Rise and shine, she hopes to find
Happiness buried in the dunes

If you give her some time she’ll find most anything
She dreams of a guy and a forgotten wedding ring, oh she sings
Why won’t somebody comb the beach for me?

Skipping stones, digging bones,
Resurrecting memories by the pound
Spade in hand, dig the sand
A spoonful of sugar going down

If you give her some time she’ll find most anything
She dreams of a guy and a forgotten wedding ring, oh she sings…
Why won’t somebody comb the beach for me?

Why won’t somebody comb the beach for
The unprotected, the undetected in the sun. Looking will save us.

And the waves make shallow graves
The beachcomber is lost without her friend
If you give her some time she’ll find most anything
She dreams of a guy and a forgotten wedding ring, oh she sings…
Why won’t somebody comb the beach for me?
