Lyrics Blue Pacific - Michael Franks

Blue Pacific

Here I am: «Hometown Boy Makes Good»
Writes one critic
All my childhood I lived
By the blue Pacific
Anytime that reality
Makes me heartsick
I come here just to stare
At the blue Pacific
Sea.
And barefoot on the beach
I watch for you on the horizon
That’s where you promised you would be
I’ve seen your face before in my imagination
One day my eyes will learn to see
Here by the blue Pacific where
The diamond water shimmers in the sun
By the blue Pacific where
The gull still glides and waves divide
The silence just like time
Understandably happy to be specific
When I’m snorkeled and finned
In the blue Pacific
I admire the damselfish
Feel terrific
As I float on the face
Of the blue Pasific
