Seaside Heights, N. J. 
July 1982    
                                                                      The Ferris Wheel    
 

 

                           The Ferris Wheel, miles down the beach

                                           is going round and round

                                                carrying lovers high above the boardwalk

                                                         to look out over the ocean, 

                                                         or down upon the crowds below.

                                                                                

                                                                                    

                                                                                     

                                                                      

                     

       Giving them a little privacy in a         crowded world. 

       A chance to say   " I love you."  without the world hearing. 

             Here on the beach, we have to whisper. 

         There's a sailboat on the horizon,  I wonder where it's going?    

                     

              I feel like going on the Ferris wheel.

                If from the top I yell it loud enough the world will know,

                                                                 

                   "I love you."
