[Verse 1]

Flocking to the sea

Crowds of people wait for me

Seagulls scavenge, steal ice cream

Worries vanish within my dream

[Chorus]

I left my soul there, down by the sea

I lost control here, living free

I left my soul there, down by the sea

I lost control here, living free

[Verse 2]

Fishing boats sail past the shore

No singing mayday anymore

The sun is shining, the water's clear

Just you and I'll walk along the pier

[Chorus]

I left my soul there, down by the sea

I lost control here, living free

I left my soul there, down by the sea

I lost control here, living free

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]

A cool breeze flows but mind the wasp

Some get stung it's worth the cost

I'd love to stay, the city calls me home

More hassles, fuss and lies on the phone

[Chorus]

I left my soul there, down by the sea

I lost control here, living free

I left my soul there, down by the sea

I lost control here, living free

I left my soul there, down by the sea

I lost control here, living free

[Outro]

I left my soul there, down by the sea, yeah

I lost control here, living, living

And I, living by the sea
