I am from the ocean, and the waves

I am from sandy beaches and sunny days

I’m from other places far away, where sunsets are still

the best part of the day

I’m from the cool breezes which takes all your cares

and sends them away

I’m from the bright sky lines to the dark mountains

I’m from sprays of snow, to the spray of the salty sea

I’m from the smells of new places

and the sights of the world

from adventure and mystery

but also from the known

I’m from the ordinary

and the extraordinary

I’m from the old

and the new

I’m from San Diego
