Strum
D-DU-UDU
Coconut  Grove
 Is a very  small  cove
 Separated  from the sea
 By a shifting  shoal
We  didnt realize  that
We  had arrived
At  high tide,  high tide
Barely  made it out  alive
Ooh  ooh ooh ooh ooh  ooh ooh ooh
Ooh  ooh ooh ooh ooh  ooh
Ooh  ooh ooh ooh ooh  ooh ooh ooh
Ooh  ooh ooh ooh ooh  ooh
Red  over white
 Fishermen  working at night
Not  even once
 Did we  see a light
We  didnt realize
The  forecast had been  revised
By  moonless skies  and
Shifty  wind that gusts  and dies
Ooh  On the sand  our keel is heaving
But  tonight weve got to be leaving
 Travel through  the day and into  the evening
Marathon  how long  weve been gone
 And still  not yet  set foot  upon  you
Your  low lying shore  opens welcomingly
To  one whos spent the night  at sea
Adrift  in the shallows,  a modest  repose
Adorn  with coral,  your bright  colors show
Ushered in  through a bridge  that is  never closed
