Pescadero Sun

from Sacred Precinct by Virgin Twin

/

lyrics

Come take a ride down the Coast Highway,
Headed south from Half Moon Bay.
Jump in that car, it’s not that far to Santa Cruz,
But you can lose your lonely blues along the way.
From Cowell Ranch to Pigeon Point,
Año Nuevo, Davenport.
The sunlight shimmers off the coast,
The moonlight glimmers more than most,
And it gets straight into your heart.

I’ve got a lot of what it takes to get along,
And so do you – the ocean’s blue, a perfect day.
I’m back there cruising by the sea, and baby that’s all right with me,
This road holds memories that never go away.
I’ve seen the edge of life, the crashing and the spray;
I’ve seen the world go spinning and I’ve hit the ground.
Still feel the rhythm of the waves; the mental pattern it engraves
Remains to save me – when I’m lost, I’m found.

And it’s all right, it’s better by the sea.
I said it’s all right, it’s Brian’s Smile for you and me.
You know it’s all right, all right, all right.

The golden apples of the sun, the silver apples of the moon.
Hold onto this feeling, let it be your barometer,
Let it be your compass, let it be your thermometer.

Come-a come-a baby, now take me home.

Breath of sunshine, that fruity sunshine.
Breath of sunshine.

I’ve got a lot of what it takes to get along,
Holding your hand, enjoy the sterling ocean view.
Inside this moment we are one – the earth, the ocean, sky, and sun –
And you can feel the motion flow through you.
So on the coldest days in this North West, I close my eyes
And feel those penetrating, warming rays.
These fractal trees along the Fylde have got their beauty and their style,
But baby, give me Highway One most any day.

And it’s all right, it’s better by the sea.
You know it’s all right, it’s made for you and me.
You know it’s all right, it’s all right, it’s all right.

The golden apples of the sun, the silver apples of the moon.

And it’s all right, it’s better by the sea.
Oh yeah, it’s all right, it’s there for you and me.
You know it’s all right, said it’s all right, you know it’s all right.
I only want to be with someone
In the Pescadero sun.
Just feel that shine – it’s yours and mine,
And you feel find that, by design, there is enough for everyone.
Is that right? Is that right? Is that right?

I only want to be with someone
In the Pescadero sun.
