Forty miles form nowhere the trades cast a breeze, as the sun sets on Oahu my thoughts are of things to be. Gazed beyond distant wave that falls upon the reef, my eyes are stilled by sunset thrills and breeze on torques seas.
[Verse 2]
Lit clouds a glow from sunset low on endless sea’s horizon, spreads fanning light of glimmered rays that shine to new day rising. Leeward gaze of restless sea spans time and empty miles, thoughts ride past the crested seas and dream of times on trial.
[Verse 3]
My body warmed by sun baked sand cause mind to be at ease, I lay alone upon this beach inhaling every breeze. I close my eyes and hear the tide reseed and then advance, the ocean mist explodes tide’s bliss to scent my circumstance.
[Verse 4]
With eyes shut tight this place seems right to contemplate life’s fate. The sun, the sky, the wind now high mutes sounds of such debates.
[Verse 5]
These forty miles from nowhere the trades cast a breeze, and as a seed that blows bye my future calls the tune, and like a seed I’ll roll by for another day too soon.
[Instrumental]
[Verse 6]
This land is so fertile and the people are so kind, it seems that this island is from another place in time. The deer and the turkey run wild through the hills, and the people live here simple with no pills for cheap thrills.
[Verse 7]
While basking in the wind whipped sand my thoughts have placed refrain. On days gone by and reason why the world has gone insane. Senses hear and see and smell three thousand miles from major port, this span of sea can set one free from thoughts that cause contorts.
[Final Verse]
This place can lift a soul that’s fell and sounds of sea can mute the spells, refrain internal tones. Unwind a mind, connect life’s rhymes and ground such thoughts to bone.
