National Beach Day

This week the theme is to find a song that celebrates sandy beaches.

Not sure if this fits the theme but a sandy beach is implied…

Lyrics

Gonna put the the world away for a minute
Pretend I don’t live in it
Sunshine gonna wash my blues away

Had sweet love but I lost it
She got too close, so I fought her
Now I’m lost in the world tryna to find me a better way

Wishing I was knee deep in the water somewhere
Got the blue sky breeze and it don’t seem fair
Only worry in the world is the tide gonna reach my chair
Sunrise, there’s a fire in the sky
Never been so happy, never felt so high
And I think I might have found me my own kind of paradise

Wrote a note, said, “Be back in a minute”
Bought a boat and I sailed off in it
Don’t think anybody’s gonna miss me anyway

Mind on a permanent vacation
The ocean is my only medication
Wishing my condition ain’t ever gonna go away

‘Cause now I’m knee deep in the water somewhere
Got the blue sky breeze blowing wind through my hair
Only worry in the world is the tide gonna reach my chair
Sunrise, there’s a fire in the sky
Never been so happy, never felt so high
And I think I might have found me my own kind of paradise

This champagne shore washing over me
It’s a sweet, sweet life living by the salty sea
One day, you could be as lost as me
Change your geography
Maybe you might be

Knee deep in the water somewhere
Got the blue sky breeze blowing wind through my hair
Only worry in the world is the tide gonna reach my chair
Sunrise, there’s a fire in the sky
Never been so happy, never felt so high
And I think I might have found me my own kind of paradise

Come on in the water, it’s nice
Find yourself a little slice
Grab a backpack of lies
You never know until you try
When you lose yourself
You find the key to paradise
