Somewhere South With Rum

Found a postcard on a surf shop stand and bought it for a dollar
A panoramic picture of the perfect ocean view
Sat down on the pier and pulled a pen out of my pocket
And even though we're over, I thought this was overdue

I wonder what you'll think about when you see my name
The good, the bad, the in-between, I'ma send it anyway

I hope you took that trip you always talked about to Charleston
Bounced around in and out of every bar off King
And I'm just sitting, watching boats float in and out the harbor
And I can finally say I hope you found someone
Sincerely yours from my side of the sun
Signed Somewhere South with Rum

Down here they say the breaking waves can cure the broken-hearted
It's a tale as old as time, but only time can tell
And as for me, my tomorrow seemed to be uncharted
But it finally feels like I've got wind back in my sails

I hope you found that little place and left your old apartment
If you think about it, tell your mom and dad "hello"
I'm just sitting, watching boats float in and out the harbor
And I can finally say I hope you found someone
Sincerely yours, from my side of the sun
Signed Somewhere South with Rum

The tiki bar behind me's playing "No Woman No Cry"
So I'll just sit and sing along, and drink to you and smile

I hope you took that trip you always talked about to Charleston
Bounced around in and out of every bar off King
And I'm just sitting, watching boats float in and out the harbor
And I can finally say I hope you found someone
Sincerely yours from my side of the sun
Signed Somewhere South with Rum
