Songs by Chip Post

Seagull

When she sees him again, she truly hopes that they'll be friends
and though the feelings still remain, the situations have all changed
and the man she used to know, he hasn't changed much but he's grown old,
and never learned the meanings behind the feelings grown cold.
And she asks him why, why oh why, be like a seagull falling from the sky,
but he seeks to find out what it means and so he drifts about in a maze of dreams.

If you ever think of me, don't forget the levity
we once possessed when we were young, and our songs were yet unsung
and like the carving on the tree which grew so tall we could not see
that they had turned the page, and switched the stage, act and scene.
And she asks him why, why oh why, be like a seagull falling from the sky,
but he seeks to find out what it means and spends all his days in his world of dreams.

Just to pass the time away, a man walked out his door one day
he saw a seagull way up high and aimed his gun up toward the sky
and the seagull he did fall just as someday we know that we must all
and our memory may never be recalled.
And so she asks him why, why oh why, be like the seagull falling from the sky,
And so she asks him why, why oh why, be like the seagull falling from the sky.
