Tennis - Marathon Lyrics






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

Your low lying shore opens welcomingly
To one who's spent the night at sea
Adrift in the shallows, a modest repose
Adorn with coral, your bright colors show
Ushered in through a bridge that is never closed

Tennis Marathon Comments
  1. I.... K....

    I love that currently Tennis has an early 80s/ 70s aesthetic. Listen to this and it's more of a 60s indie pop vibe. So much talent it's crazy!!! Love love love ❤️🎾

  2. �.... �....

    Such a wonderful song.
    And it never becomes repetitive because the tune changes constantly, good for many listens.

  3. k.... ....

    Who thinks of Dion & the Belmonts “Teenager in Love” when they hear this?

  23. T.... ....

    What is this song about though

    T.... ....

    @Christine H Yes for real, help me out pls., instead of snarkily questioning me. What is this song about?

    T.... ....

    They both adore sailing. A lot of the language they use is based on this, but my interpretation is of enduring a long journey to get to somewhere they've always dreamt of being. Physically or emotionally. That's just my opinion though, no one knows what these amazing people were thinking of when they wrote this beautiful song.

    T.... ....
