Lyrics
LINDA MAR GIRL
Mark Patterson
Copyright 2022
On the beach where the valley gives way to the sea
And the men in the black suits are shooting the curl
Out of town boys stroll casually
And pray for the chance to meet a Linda Mar girl
Some men dream of finding wealth and acclaim
But only a fortunate few of the world
Can look you in the eye and in their reverie claim
To have won the heart of a Linda Mar girl
The moon was up and the bonfire calling
The fog stood watch from just offshore
Down in Shelter Cove before the road started falling
We made love to the ocean's roar
Nothing measures up to what we cherished before
No matter how deep the dive or cultured the pearl
So you're forgiven if nobody strikes the right chord
Nor holds a candle to a Linda Mar girl
In time when you find yourself back on the coast
Where the sun surrenders to a misty swirl
Let the waves bring you back to the time you miss most
When you walked in the light of a Linda Mar girl
When you walked in the light of a Linda Mar girl
Walk in the light of a Linda Mar Girl
