Cortez, Abalone skies
Crashing, before my lazy, lazy eyes
Many men, many hearts, many sailed your waves
Chorus - Free as the pelicans that fish your sea
In the spark of morning, “Mr Sonshine” arises
Chipping a crystal hourglass on your canvas
Following me wherever I go, I go
Chorus - Free as the pelicans that fish your sea
At moments the crystals in the hourglass fall upwards
Erasing, time... time
Brother moon has given me his moment, his time... to be
Chorus - Free as the pelicans that fish your sea
Bridge – Take time, take time, free…
I see what’s above your water, but not below
As a sailor of the stratosphere, I see below, but not above
Precariously perched, to break, break free,
Chorus - Free as the pelicans that fish your sea
Ending - Free, free, as the pelicans… fish your… sea, true, freedom
