| I know this stretch of road, I’ve been here often
|
| The ocean rolls as far as you can see
|
| The rocky coast is misty in the sunlight
|
| Seagulls flying low are flying free
|
| Their wings are like my memories and desires
|
| Spreading out to carry me along
|
| And I remember everything that mattered
|
| The times when I was weak instead of strong
|
| Today the hills are restless with desire
|
| They shudder, shaking all their blossoms free
|
| The scent of dusty pines and Eucalyptus
|
| Remind me of the time when I was me
|
| I loved you like the sunlight on the ocean
|
| Loved you like the seagulls in their flights
|
| Loved you like the stars that shine in heaven
|
| Loved you through the days and through the nights
|
| I left you and the rocky coast behind me
|
| Found a way to live without a heart
|
| For I had left it throbbing in your keeping
|
| And grew another, praying it would start
|
| I hear the saints still pray along the ocean
|
| I see the padres walking in the dawn
|
| The bells of Capistrano ring to call them
|
| To pray for us and sing their ancient song
|
| Please pray for me you padres of the ocean
|
| Pray I find my heart among the waves
|
| For freedom’s left one panting for the bondage
|
| And you can see the light beyond the grave
|
| I loved you like the sunlight on the ocean
|
| Loved you like the seagulls in their flights
|
| Loved you like the stars that shine in heaven
|
| Loved you thru the days and through the nights
|
| I know this stretch of road, I’ve been here often
|
| The ocean rolls as far as you can see
|
| The rocky coast is misty in the sunlight
|
| Seagulls flying low are flying free |
