Strap me into your fearless ship
Lock me down nice and tight
Treat me sweet with a window seat
Before the boosters ignite
Ain't no cure for where I'm going
Time likes to stretch and bend
"Now" and "here" all become "last year"
I guess you'll never see me again
(CH)
The winter months, they shaped me
Snow and bright, bright stars
The universe will take me
In spite of all my scars
Down in Corpus Christi
Walking up and down the beach
A pocket full of sea glass
And dreams just out of reach
That little motel by the ocean
Fried fish and cold, cold beer
The universe will take me
All my joy and all my fear
(CH)
I sold everything
and gave it all away
Said goodbye to a city
That was no longer mine
On my way out of town
There was one last thing I wanted to do
See that old man for one last can of beer
and some barbecue
(CH)

The old man down the street
must be home again
It hasn't smelled this good
since I don't remember when
The old man down the street
has got that look in his eye
His smoke fills the sky
but it's the good kind
(CH)
Smoke fills the sky
And I know what it means to be alive
Smoke fills the sky
And I remember what it means to be alive
His truck is full of tools
And his mind is filled with canvas unpainted
His shelves are filled with books
and dreams of a tomorrow untainted
He's fired up his barbecue
Doesn't really know what else to do
When the world gets to be too much
See him getting back in touch
with a fundamental truth
Smoke fills the sky
And I know what it means to be alive
He's building fences, tearing down walls
Calling to the clouds before the next tree falls

Estoy enamorado
No se puede robar
mi afecto por la playa
El mar me acerca
cada vez mas
Los sonidos y olores de Pelacone
por donde quiera
Mi corazón canta
en Casa del Mar
Estoy enamorado
A mi corazón se vuela
con las estrellas
La arena de playa duerma
entre de mis dedos de los pies
Los sonidos y olores de Pelacone
por donde quiera
Mi corazón canta
en Casa del Mar
Estoy enamorado con Casa del Mar
El sol esta' bailando con las olas
No se puede robar
mi afecto por la playa
El mar me acerca
cada vez mas
Los sonidos y olores de Pelacone
por donde quiera
Mi corazón canta
en Casa del Mar

the last time we were in the waves together
was a hundred years ago
just for an hour or so
we couldn't stop time
but we sure slowed it down
the beach and the blue sky
both went on and on forever
the surf in our ears, an endless sound
wash away the guilt and shame
that live in the wrinkles in my brow
the kids out swimming stopped and stared
as two old men came out to play
two little boys, both pushing 50
there couldn't be a better way
take me out into those waves
dip me in the salty sea
and all of my fears
wash them off of me
the last time we were in the waves together
was a hundred years ago
the little boy that lives inside
comes out to play with eyes so wide
with delight
he knows just what to do
when i step aside and let him through
the kids out swimming stopped and stared
as two old men came out to play
two little boys, both pushing 50
there couldn't be a better way
take me out into those waves
dip me in the salty sea
and all of my fears
wash them off of me

surrender

Spent my entire life
refusing to surrender
Never giving up
or giving in
And all this time
the door has been wide open
But the fear of disappointment
has always done me in
Yet here in this dream space
between night and day
Your frequency is strong and clear
I can feel you near
I can tell you love me dearly
Yes, here in this dream space
between awake and asleep
Your frequency is strong and clear
I can feel you near
I can tell you love me dearly
Whispering in my ear
You say there's only one thing left to do
Surrender all my fears
Give them up to you

It's been way too long...
Been away too long...
We played in the waves with all our hearts
like there was no tomorrow
We laughed like it was life or death
Splashed like there was never sorrow
Joyful just to share this breath again with you
We tumbled head over heels like only brothers can
Saltwater in our mouths and eyes
Sand in our ears and in our pockets
What a big surprise
We played in the waves with all our hearts
like there was no tomorrow
We laughed like it was life or death
Splashed like there was never sorrow
Joyful just to share this breath again with you
