| The Gulf Of Mexico Lyrics |
| Clint Black |
| The Texas coastline hold her |
| Close just like a lady |
| And in their time they've |
| Weathered a storm or two. |
| The river feed her waters like |
| I feed your memory. |
| The deeper I go the more I'm turning blue. |
| The sandy beaches drift in time |
| And the changing tide I know |
| Won't bring me back to yesterday |
| And the Gulf of Mexico. |
| Solo |
| The sails out on the water will |
| Come take you away. |
| When your ship comes in I know its time to go |
| And the waves along the seawall |
| Tell me nothings here to stay |
| And no man is an island but I'm still all alone. |
| I'm weighing anchors from the past |
| As the south winds start to blow |
| Sailing out of yesterday |
| And the Gulf of Mexico. |
| I'll be sailing out of yesterday |
| And the Gulf of Mexico. |
