lyrics

PACIFIC GHOST written by Dan Blakeslee on 9/4/16
©2023 Dan Blakeslee

I’ve been a daredevil most of my life.
Out there having fun not hurtin’ anyone.
Always careful where I step.
No need for walkin’ tall just mind that I don’t fall.

Could’ve been a ghost, on the Pacific coast.
In ocean waves I don’t wish to be hidin’.
Could’ve been a ghost, on the Pacific coast.
Today is not my day for dyin’.

Although mermaids lure me in.
It’s not one of my wishes to be swimmin’ with the fishes.
Some lives are long, but many short-lived.
I lost track at nine, this is life has no rewind.

Could’ve been a ghost, on the Pacific coast.
In ocean waves I don’t wish to be hidin’.
Could’ve been a ghost, on the Pacific coast.
Today is not my day for dyin’.

I’ve got to see my new love again.
Got to see my new love again.
With the hurricane blowin’.
As I hang onto this mountain.
With the hurricane blowin’,
I will climb this mountain.
I WILL climb this mountain!
