1
He was just 23, cut like a rake
2
Narrow and strong, eyes deep as a lake
3
He was captain and crew to his craft made of chrome
4
For the enemies' guns left him all alone
5
The bombs had all dropped, they levelled the land
6
So he found an island and put it down on the sand
7
He walked up the beach between torch and palm trees
8
Found a small bamboo hut and a warm nightly breeze
9
She was barely 19, all freckles and smiles
10
She carried a tray full of coconut vials
11
Her mom and her dad were doctor and nurse
12
They'd been killed in the war
13
She had naught in her purse
14
She walked on the beach, she slept in the shack
15
And when he walked in, she got her smile back
16
She saw in his eyes the rest of her life
17
She would follow his journeys; best friend or his wife
18
He was just 21, cut like a rake
19
Narrow and strong, eyes deep as a lake
20
He was captain and crew to his craft made of chrome
21
For the enemies' guns left him all alone
22
The bombs had all dropped, they levelled the land
23
So he found an island and put it down on the sand
24
He walked up the beach between torch and palm trees
25
Found a small bamboo pub and a warm nightly breeze
