You and I will find paradise in a port city Spent our whole lives feeling landlocked, bored In the afternoon we will walk the pier, watch the waves Count the clouds, draw me near, feel the heat, yeah, real pretty We hugged the shore to get here and it loved us back A couple of kids with a backpack and some cash stacks Here in a lancha with people who’re dreaming of half that Try to decipher the Spanish, like if we are really respectful The damage from tourists will vanish Yeah, I’m just being candid — There’s a chance we could wind up On some random island abandoned It could happen, but life doesn’t go just the way that you planned it Forget why you’re falling and focus on landing You and I will find paradise in a port city Spent our whole lives feeling landlocked, bored In the afternoon we will walk the pier, watch the waves Count the clouds, draw me near, feel the heat, real pretty Glassy seas conceal razor-sharp coral reefs Drained of life they could rip our boat easily I don’t second-guess it in the open water, leeward breeze Read the leaves, tell me did I do right by the least of these? Put our faith in this kid revving the engine, he’s seventeen I guess you grow up fast at the coast but I’ve never seen A choppier ocean to hop across and I’m feeling green We’ve got to make some peace with these border guards Try to find some sleep You and I will find paradise in a port city Spent our whole lives feeling landlocked, bored In the afternoon we will walk the pier, watch the waves Count the clouds, draw me near, feel the heat, real pretty We didn’t know this beach would be So rough when we set out But we got a table and played with the labels on bottles The shade is amazing for now The port is a lifeline Hundreds of people a day making the trip of a lifetime No papers, see what the day brings Got to rely on the grapevine So we make time to just listen Arepas con queso and rum, that’s good living Jose was there with us since the beginning He don’t talk much but he’s good at convincing I hope he finds what he’s after Travelling this hard and this far he has to believe in some magic I want to see him relaxing When he settles down, I hope it’s all he imagined You and I will find paradise in a port city Spent our whole lives feeling landlocked, bored In the afternoon we will walk the pier, watch the waves Count the clouds, draw me near, feel the heat, real pretty
