about

Hey I just loved Sausalito! Bass added in 2017, but original recorded in 2016.

lyrics

Looking back across the bay, the mist is rolling in from the ocean
But that don't touch us sitting here, sunglasses on and the sky is golden
The yachts are heading to the gate and the ferry boat is sailing back past Quentin
The pier head takes no time at all, but it's worlds away from where I was sitting

A man I heard would sing a song bout leaving his heart in San Francisco
Well that's fine by him, but my hearts been left behind in Sausalito. I left my heart in Sausalito

Break

Time slips by much slower than it does as the hours go by in mission
Where you pull on your jacket and turn your collar up to keep the chill from creeping
The Bay bridge stretching out across to Northern California sure looks good/fine
But I prefer the ferry boat to the place I hope one day is mine

A man I heard would sing a song bout leaving his heart in San Francisco
Well that's fine by him, but my hearts been left behind in Sausalito. I left my heart in Sausalito.
