The Coastal Raised Man

Where his surfing mates are riding the big waves today
From the town by the ocean he lives far away
In his dreams in full tide he hear the sea roar
When the huge waves do crash on the rocks on the shore
Next Summer he will be back in his Hometown
And on familiar streets he will walk up and down
The town where he is known on every street
In suburbia where he now lives only strangers he meet
He left for adventure in the big World out there
To see what life is like in places elsewhere
But absence makes the heart grow fonder as some like to say
And next Summer he will be going home for to stay
The coastal raised man likes to live by the sea
In familiar surroundings amongst friends and family.
