Message In A Bottle Lyrics - 17 Pine Avenue - New Riders Of The Purple Sage

Nelson-Hunter 

I was standing at the water's edge 

Watching the waves, watching the waves 

I was standing at the water's edge 

Just watching the waves roll in. 

Saw a message in a big brown bottle 

A big brown bottle, big brown bottle 

Saw a message inside a bottle 

Wash up and roll away. 

Big brown bottle on the salt sea shore 

Ain't gonna grieve no more, no more 

Ain't gonna grieve no more. 

I wondered what the message had to say 

How I wondered, how I wondered 

I wondered what the message had to say 

I guess I'll never know.

I wish I hadn't let it roll away 

Roll away, let it roll away 

I wish I hadn't let it roll away 

More than I can say. 

Big brown bottle on the salt sea shore 

Ain't gonna grieve no more, no more 

Ain't gonna grieve no more. 

Might have been lottery jackpot numbers 

Jackpot numbers, jackpot numbers 

Might have been lottery jackpot numbers 

And I could be rich today. 

Might have been the key to peace and freedom 

Peace and freedom, peace and freedom 

Might have been the key to peace and freedom 

That I let roll away. 

Big brown bottle on the salt sea shore 

Ain't gonna grieve no more, no more 

Ain't gonna grieve no more.

Well, it might have been the number of 

The number of, number of 

It might have been the number of 

Somebody for me to love. 

Big brown bottle on the salt sea shore 

Salt sea shore, salt sea shore 

Big brown bottle on the salt sea shore 

I ain't gonna grieve no more. 

Big brown bottle on the salt sea shore 

Ain't gonna grieve no more, no more 

Ain't gonna grieve no more.
