MUSIC FOR A LAZY SUNDAY AFTERNOON

By Debbie Bulloch



Today, after a two weeks hiatus I went back to my favorite bike ride down PCH through Emma Wood Beach and to the city of Ventura. Along the way I paused to look at a sailboat anchored by the Ventura Pier.

Looking back at the photographs that I took this morning reminded me of Christopher Cross’s “Sailing” – the perfect song for a lazy Sunday afternoon.

Enjoy. (You can click on the photos to see a more detailed, full screen version.)







SAILING

It's not far down to paradise
At least it's not for me
And if the wind is right you can sail away
And find tranquility
The canvas can do miracles
Just you wait and see
Believe me

It's not far to never never land
No reason to pretend
And if the wind is right you can find the joy
Of innocence again
The canvas can do miracles
Just you wait and see
Believe me




Sailing
Takes me away
To where I've always heard it could be
Just a dream and the wind to carry me
And soon I will be free

Fantasy
It gets the best of me
When I'm sailing
All caught up in the reverie
Every word is a symphony
Won't you believe me




It's not far back to sanity
At least it's not for me
And when the wind is right you can sail away
And find serenity
The canvas can do miracles
Just you wait and see
Believe me
