"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

Everything felt right
Well I had to grow up
Had to move on
Had to find out how to let love go

You caught me by...
Kris Allen - "Live Like We're Dying" Sometimes we fall down, can't get back up
We're hiding behind skin that's too tough
How come we don't say "I love you" enough
'Til it's too late, it's not too late
Our hearts are hungry for a food...
Jervis Campbell - "Teach Me To Dance" There's a storm deep inside me raging with thunder
And I know I can't hide it for the tempest it comes
I can feel it all, the weight of my burdens
I know that I can't do this alone
There's a road...
Jon Foreman - "Inheritance" I remember when we first started
Those Tennessee summer nights
From your little Brentwood apartment
With 10 cent wings for the drive
We fell in love long distance
Back in the payphone times
We didn't...
Ben Rector - "Kids" I saw a photograph
From ten years back
It's you and I, we're standing in the rain
Somewhere outside Atlanta
And I think my 12 seat van
Is right there out of frame
This was before I knew my way...
