Story Behind The Song
was sitting on the beach at Carlsbad California last May with my guitar. Had spent the day wondering if we would have to evacuate because of all the brushfires in San Diego that day. Sitting on the shore i saw two dolphins enjoying the evening sunset, joyous and fee, and I wrote this song

Lyrics
IF I was a dolphin,free with my emotions
I'd head to California,that blue pacific ocean
me ,Dolly and the Porpoise friends
hanging with the surfers whoa oh oh oh
watching as the sun, goes down tonight
on a perfect California night
If I was a blue Whale,swimming in that ocean
I'd sing my songs everyday,sing 'em with devotion
I'd rock you with a simple tune
rock you with a feeling whoa oh oh oh
singing as the sun goes down tonight
on a perfect California night
Whoa ho oh, whoa ho oh
whoa ho oh oh, whoa oh
whoa oh oh, whoa oh oh
blissin' as the sun goes down tonight
on a perfect California night
Now if I was a seagull,sun kissing the horizon
I'd fly to where the sun goes down
looking for that Island,
me Dolly and the porpoise friends
hanging with the surfers whoa oh oh oh
watching as the sun goes down tonight
on southern California night
watching as the sun goes down tonight
on a perfect California night
Whoa ho oh,whoa ho oh
whoa ho oh oh, whoa oh
whoa ho oh, whoa ho oh (let chorus again)
