lyrics
chorus:
Relax and breathe. Feel moments come and moments stay on the way.
Relax and breathe. Feel moments come and moments stay on the way.
1. Many miles tick by with one more sigh...are we their yet?
The coffee in my hand is not so grand. It doesn't give what I need.
Spicy air carries birdsong up from there. Are we their yet?
I can feel the breeze. It's on my face and in my mind.
(chorus)
2. Picking oranges warmed up by the sun. Nothing better.
Relaxed and breezy sand between your toes...there it goes.
The shape of clouds remind me of the things I'd rather see
like those Florida shirts and one more cocktail.
(chorus)
Bridge:
But if for a while it'll make you smile...fight the devil inside.
Sweet for the moment or forever. Carries you through in all kinds of weather.
3. Children of the sun are so appealing.
A break is what it takes from being broken.
The ocean's sigh...the breezes blowing by...
the daily grind is not so caffeinated.
(chorus)
