Lyrics

[Intro]
[Verse]
Dusty shoes on the shore
I don't need them no more
Left the city behind
Peace is all I can find
Yellow sun in the sky
See the gulls flying high
My heart starts to beat
With the sand on my feet
[Hook]
Sweet dodo in the air
Throw away every care
I’m finally there
[Chorus]
Oh, my saltwater gold
Story finally told
Hear the talking drum beat
Moving all of my feet
From the West to the East
Now I’m joining the feast
Yeah, the rhythm is right
Under coastal light
[Post-Chorus]
Feel the wave
Be the wave
Home today
Stay this way
[Verse]
Kojo laughs way too loud
Standing tall, feeling proud
Mama’s hands on my face
Nothing beats this embrace
Silver nets in the boat
Keep my spirit afloat
I’ve been gone for a while
Now I can’t hide the smile
[Pre-Chorus]
Years away, miles apart
Kept the map in my heart
Now the trumpet is clear
Telling me I am here
I am here
[Chorus]
Oh, my saltwater gold
Story finally told
Hear the talking drum beat
Moving all of my feet
From the West to the East
Now I’m joining the feast
Yeah, the rhythm is right
Under coastal light
[Bridge]
Building walls in the cold
But the soul can’t be sold
Trade the glass for the sand
Hold the life in my hand
It’s a beautiful thing
Hear the village folk sing
Let the djembe sound
On this holy ground
[Chorus]
Oh, my saltwater gold
Story finally told
Hear the talking drum beat
Moving all of my feet
From the West to the East
Now I’m joining the feast
Yeah, the rhythm is right
Under coastal light
[Post-Chorus]
Feel the wave
Be the wave
Home today
Stay this way
[Outro]
