Seaglass and Springsteen: A Love Lost in Sea-foam Dreams
Lyrics
I was stuck in the indigo
I felt trapped in a deep blue mood or situation.
Had no way out
I had no escape from my predicament.
Had nowhere to go
I had no direction or destination.
I could feel you right next to me
I sensed your presence close to me.
Sun tan and ocean breeze
Describes a relaxed atmosphere with sun and sea breeze.
You blew the smoke from your cigarette
You exhaled cigarette smoke, leaving an impression on me.
Caught me tongue tied
I was left speechless or shy.
But I can’t forget
Despite being tongue-tied, I cannot forget the encounter.
Your eyes remind me of summer time
Your eyes evoke memories of summer.
You call me yours, I’ll call you my
A mutual affection expressed using terms of endearment.
