paradise …interrupted

Since our kids are heading back to school this week, we took them back to the beach this past weekend for one last summer hurrah. Luckily the rain held off while we were at the beach but the visit was still cut short by the appearance of three sharks nearby. The lifeguards pulled everyone out of the water and we all stood on the shore to view a rather large one surface above the water a couple times. Even though the kids weren’t able to play in the water the rest of the afternoon, the shark sighting was still the highlight of the trip!!

Anyway, for today’s song of the day, I thought I’d post a “summer-related” track by Neil and Tim Finn titled “Paradise (Wherever You Are)”. enjoy!

Endless travels, can’t remember where I’ve been
Lying in this hammock feeling tragic
Like the ones you hear so much about
Can’t wait to tell you what I’ve seen
Skim the water, South Atlantic ocean grey
Always searching for his mate
Lonely albatross cannot find them
The ones you care so much about
They’re lost and you’re losing your way
Too much pressure, gin and tonic water
They’ll forget you
The ones you care so much about
They’ll surrender to the need
Paradise wherever you are…
- written by Neil and Tim Finn
