Lyrics

There's a blue rockin' chair
Sittin' in the sand
Weathered by the storms
And well oiled hands
It sways back and forth
With the help of the winds
Seems to always be there
Like an ol' trusted friend

I've read a lot of books, wrote a few songs
Looked at my life, where it's goin', where it's gone
I've seen the world, through a bus windshield
But nothing compares
To the way that I see it
To the way that I see it
To the way that I see it
When I sit in that old blue chair

From that chair I've caught
A few fish and some rays
And I've watched boats sail
In and out of cinnamon bay
I let go of a lover
That took a piece of my heart
Prayed many times for forgiveness
And a brand new start

I've read a lot of books, wrote a few songs
Looked at my life, where it's goin', where it's gone
I've seen the world, through a bus windshield
But nothing compares
To the way that I see it
To the way that I see it
To the way that I see it
When I sit in that old blue chair

That chair was my bed one new year's night
When I passed out from too much cruzan and diet
And I woke up to a hundred mosquito bites. I swear
Got 'em all sittin' right there, in the old blue chair

There's a blue rockin' chair
Sittin' in the sand
Weathered by the storms
And well oiled hands
