Song lyrics

I packed a few of my belongings,
Left the life that I was living,
Just some memories of it
Mostly the ones I can't forget.

Whenever you need me, I'll be here
Until then, my dear,
I'm going, I'm going, I'm going there,
Don't ask me to make time
To travel back and forth,
Let nature take it's course.
Maybe I'm open from all this ocean air,
And if it weren't for you, I'd be without a care
Setting sail to St. Elsewhere.

Anywhere you sit, you can see the sun,
Unfortunately, on this island I'm the only one,
Same rules apply on a rainy day
And it's not such a pretty place to be,
It just rains, and rains, and rains on me.
Send a simple sign, I can understand,
Then a flower grew out that sand,
Before you knew it, I was back out on that sea,
Now I don't mind it so much
Because as long as I'm not there,
Anywhere is St. Elsewhere.

Way over yonder there is new frontier,
Would it be so hard for you to come and visit me here?
I understand.
Would you just send me a message in a bottle then, baby?
St. Elsewhere.
