"Pacific City" lyrics

"Pacific City"

Campfire smoke is blowing in your eyes
Smell of home and ponderosa pine
Asking to sleep in
I know we're both tired
Of dreaming and sinking
And laughing while crying

Sunrising on a coastline
Hung over from a long drive
The sun was shining off the waves
Like it was solid gold
We're hanging by the wayside
Like towels on a close line
You said it wasn't pretty
But it was so magical

Pacific city had a hold on me
Like a kid with a kite
Holding tight to that string
The aspen trees shaking
Like confetti fire
I'm no good at waiting
But trust me I'm trying

Sunrising on a coastline
Hung over from a long drive
The sun was shining off the waves
Like it was solid gold
We're hanging by the wayside
Like towels on a close line
You said it wasn't pretty
But it was so magical

It's enough
It's enough
To hold on to

It's your love
It's your love
I belong to

It's enough
It's enough
To hold on to

It's your love
It's your love
I belong to

Sunrising on a coastline
Hung over from a long drive
The sun was shining off the waves
Like it was solid gold
