about

A great story/tune about a close encounter written by Andrew Bergey, included on his excellent 2001 album Andythology. Hear the original track here: home.comcast.net/~a.bergey/andrewbergeyandythology.htm

lyrics

Walking along the beach line
The tar
The undertow, do not go
Too far

Me and my dog came upon
This Orb
Looking for life, it had ground
Ashore

It was quiet, we could tell
From here
It made a sound when we got
Too near

I have no doubt in my mind
That we
Stumbled upon a visit
At sea

Will they meet me? Will they meet
My dog?
We can sit down and talk by
The log

Start a fire if it don’t
Scare them
If they should leave hope they
Come again
