Seagulls

She left St. Johns one day in May
 Dressed in her Sunday best
 A kind man sat beside her
 And she cried her way out west
 She moved in with her cousin
 Found a job down in the mall
 Her friends at home were jealous
 Said, "We'll see you in the fall"
 Buddy, you know that she wants to try
 Never you let you see her cry
 You know that she wants to try
 She's got seagulls in her eyes
 The people here seem really nice
 But the winter's way too long
 Her new friends don't understand
 They just tell her to be strong
 She made some decent money
 Yeah, but nothing comes for free
 The busy streets just don't compete
 With this guy that rocks her sea
 You know that she wants to try
 Never let you see her cry
 You know that she wants to try
 She's got seagulls in her eyes
 (Got seagulls in her eyes)
 Her parents came at Easter time
 And wanted her to stay
 But she went and got a panel-bed
 And moved home on her birthday
 The girls in town all said
 She couldn't make it on her own
 Now the skies a little smaller
 And it doesn't seem like home
 You know that she wants to try
 Never let you see her cry
 You know that she wants to try
 She's got seagulls in her eyes
 You know that she wants to try
 Never let you see her cry
 You know that she wants to try
 She's got seagulls in her eyes
 She's got seagulls in her eyes
