Marathon Lyrics - Cape Dory - Tennis

Coconut grove 

Is a very small cove 

Separated from the sea 

By a shifting shoal 

We didn't realize that 

We had arrived 

At high tide, high tide 

Barely made it out alive 

Red over white 

Fishermen working at night 

Not even once 

Did we see a light 

We didn't realize 

The forecast had been revised 

By moonless skies and 

Shifty wind that gusts and dies 

On the sand our keel is heaving 

But tonight we've got to be leaving 

Travel through the day and into the evening 

Marathon how long we've been gone 

And still not yet set foot upon you
