Mundesley Memories Of Mary (words and music by Kenny D Anstiger)
I'll sail through the boards on my own Take in views from horsey mere alone
Cycle to Croma without you this summer Catch the smokey train to Sheringham
Two weeks of every year we met Two families from Surrey and Somerset
Pitching tents next to each other Sharing the key for laundry and showers
Two tone dinghies hang in Hemsby beach shop Ships in bottles slap happy flip flops
Hand held windmills are spinning round Just like the ship when the ale's gone down
But the souvenir I could never take home Is a girl I love called Mary Jones
From toddlers to teenagers Our secret love had grown
Grass valley walks to Yarmouth pier We'd kiss and tell when the coast was clear
Crabbing pots bobbing up and down Like dizzy horses on the merry go round
Ye olde knotted handkerchief brigade In striped deck chairs on the esplanade
With their book, lotion and ice cream On the promenade stroll their bingo queens
But there's no prizes guessing where I'd be While plucky sunbathers took to the sea
Behind the sunny hunny beach huts Mary gave her love to me
Goodbye Mary Mary I know
I'll always pine for your love Now our time is up
Don't cry Mary The Mary that I know
Will soon be back here again By the dunes of the Norfolk coast
Broken sand castles on Mundesley beach Brushed away like distant memories
But I won't forget Mary And the love she gave to me
Goodbye Mary Mary I know
I'll always pine for your love Now our time is up
Don't cry Mary The Mary that I know
Will soon be back here again By the dunes of the Norfolk coast
Deserted beaches of east Anglia Don't know how long that I waited for her
Last year was the last year Mary gave her love to me
Goodbye Mary Mary I know
I'll always pine for your love Now our time is up
