There's a place down at the sea, I'll take you there someday But we have to go back quite away The spirit got washed away by a generation's time Their selfishness matched all their pride But if I knew any better, I'd stop dreaming away Once the good times are gone, they're gone for good Take me back to China Cove The one I knew in days of old Where no one cared if you had rags or gold Just ask the turtles they were there You'd race down that big hill in your just okay car Everyone knew you at the sandbar But the old money came and went, and selling out was back in style If not for the whitewash, I'd stay a while But the wagon's rusted down and the sun has changed If that's what growing up is who's to blame Take me back to China Cove The one I knew in days of old Where no one cared if you had rags or gold Just ask the turtles they were there If you had told me back then that it would all melt away I would've stayed an extra hour every day But I tip my hat to you for the fond memories Even if some were melancholy The water cold and streets as narrow as my time spent down there You ask me there was something in that air Take me back to China Cove The one I knew in days of old Where no one cared if you had rags or gold Just ask the turtles they were there
