Lyric

Well, you can't stop the ocean and you can't stop the wind

They're here, then they're gone, they don't come back again

One will keep you rollin', one will blow you away

Left me standin' all alone, next to Galveston Bay

Well, a ramblin' gal since you were young

One big ball of yarn that was too tightly spun

When you came unraveled, girl, you really got strung out

And if you ever wind back up, well, that's somethin' I doubt

Oh, Galveston Bay looks pretty at night

The water dancin' in the drillin' rig lights

And I'll stand here next to the wind and the waves

Right where you left me, next to Galveston Bay

Well, the soldiers are marchin' off to the war

And we ain't won it yet, but we'll come back for more

And as I watch the battleships sailin' away

From right where you left me, next to Galveston Bay

Well, the clock just keeps tickin', time goes by so fast

As the barges keep steamin' down the San Louis pass

Under the black smoke, the engines they roar

And I'm right where you left me, right next to the shore

Oh, Galveston Bay looks pretty at night

The water dancin' in the drillin' rig lights

And I'll stand here next to the wind and the waves

Right where you left me, next to Galveston Bay

Where the good times went, man, I ain't got a clue

You took my red heart and turned it lavender blue

Say you ain't goin' nowhere, thinkin' 'bout the past

And I say the good times are the ones that don't last

Well, the ocean breathes salty and the wind, it blows hard

And I hope that you're happy whereever you are

And if you ever decide to head back my way

I'll be right where you left me, next to Galveston Bay

Oh, Galveston Bay looks pretty at night

The water dancin' in the drillin' rig lights

And I'll stand here next to the wind and the waves

Right where you left me, next to Galveston Bay

Right where you left me, next to Galveston Bay

Oh, yeah, right where you left me, next to Galveston, Galveston Bay
