Sunday Citar – Down By The Sea

September 20, 2009 by Elaine

Some days I just LONG to be at the ocean or the sea. It’s the ultimate in beauty to me and it calms and relaxes me like nothing else I’ve found in this world. Today is one of those days…

I left my soul there,
Down by the sea
I lost control here
Living free

I left my soul there,
Down by the sea
I lost control with you,
And living, living,
And I, living, by the sea

-Lyrics by Morcheeba

    Love the beach … love sun and ocean air. I live in Denver but grew up on east coast – definitely miss the ocean.

    I have a picture similar to that hanging in our bathroom right in front of where I face when in the jacuzzi…..
    makes me want to be anywhere with sand, water, a chair, and just an hour of peace and quiet….

    ahhhhhh….
