the percussion sound on this track was played by feeding a piece of paper through the strings on the guitar and then strumming the rhythm - an idea borrowed from Johnny Cash
lyrics
She takes off her sandals
heads to the waters edge
jumping every wave
She takes off her sandals
heads to the waters edge
jumping every wave
Leaping so high to fly like the gulls
leaping so high to fly like the gulls
She takes off her sandals
heads to the waters edge
she's jumping every wave
He takes hold of her hand
as the water pulls underneath
steadies her on the sand
He takes hold of her hand
as the water pulls underneath
steadies her on the sand
Ice cream smiles on warm sunny days
with ice cream smiles on warm sunny days
He takes hold of her hand
as the water pulls underneath
he steadies her on the sand
Leaping so high to fly like the gulls
leaping so high to fly like the gulls
She takes off her sandals
heads to the waters edge
she's jumping every wave
