Welcome to the water's edge
To you I'll give my pledge
Here upon the sandy beach
I'll rest my weary head
I will give my brightest day
In the darkness I will pray
Sun and moon and tears of gold
I'm sharing now with you
Rolling in to Montara Bay
Coming in from far away
Sailing in with hopes and wishes
I am coming home today
The sound of strings ran through my mind
The tears I left behind
Packed my bags and told my folks
To wait for me no more
Left them once and left them twice
Followed all the wrong advice
Took my hat into my hands
And bid my friends farewell
Rolling in to Montara Bay
Coming in from far away
Sailing in with hopes and wishes
I am coming home to stay
Played the streets and never fell
Sure I raised a lot of hell
My flight was high, when I was young
But I landed by your side
Inside any open door
I've slept on many a floor
I'll walk another mile for you
My boots are tall and strong
Rolling in to Montara Bay
Coming in from far away
Sailing in with hopes and wishes
I am coming home to stay
I have rambled open roads
Never carried many loads
Neither did I turn my face
Against a falling star
So welcome to the water's edge
To you I'll give my pledge
Here upon the sandy beach
I'll rest my weary head
Rolling into Montara Bay
Coming in from far away
Sailing in with hopes and wishes
I am coming home
Rolling in to Montara Bay
Coming in from far away
Sailing in with hopes and wishes
I am coming home today
