Jacksons Harbour
Lyrics & Music - Keith Riley


Walking down by Jacksons Harbour , the sea and sand between my feet
At night we’d sit and watch the lightship, with fairground music on the breeze

These days, they shaped our lives and made us who we are forever
These days they shaped our lives and made us who we are

Go boarding on the prom with Macky, under the bridge down to the square
We’d ride that rusty dockside half pipe, we’d share a smoke we had no cares

These days, they shaped our lives and made us who we are forever
These days they shaped our lives and made us who we are

Walking down by Jacksons Harbour, the sea and sand between my feet
Then up to Pat & Gus on Redbrink, Pink Floyd and sweet smoke on the breeze

We all know that nothing ever lasts forever
We all know the reasons why
We can’t hold the tide of time back
Even if we try

(Guitar break)

We are much older now
And the lightships gone
And the fairgrounds dark and still
There’s only silence on the breeze

In my head I find
The musics back
And in my mind
The island light still shines for me
