I've Just Driven from Peregian

Lost in the memories of yesterday's dream
Headlights fill the road
Leaving the place I felt summer's embrace
Time to venture home
Days at the beach in the soft golden sand
Was where I spent my youth
Now I am grown with a life of my own
Gotta get back soon

I've just driven from Peregian
I've just driven from Peregian
I've just driven from Peregian
I've just driven from Peregian

It was my 13th spring when I got my first single fin
It was an old McCoy board
I paddled, I tried, and I learned to duck-dive
I heard the surfer's call
Now I'm a man living far from the coast
With work and family
30 years on and I still belong
In the surf and sea

I've just driven from Peregian
I've just driven from Peregian
I've just driven from Peregian
I've just driven from Peregian

Pandanus trees, a gentle sea breeze
Sets are starting to form
Smell of coconut wax always taking me back
As I paddle from shore
Salt on my skin like its always been
Since the days of my youth
Freedom's a wave and its calling my name
Gotta get back soon

I've just driven from Peregian
I've just driven from Peregian
I've just driven from Peregian
I've just driven from Peregian

I've just driven from Peregian
I've just driven from Peregian
I've just driven from Peregian
I've just driven from Peregian

I've just driven from Peregian
I've just driven from Peregian
I've just driven from Peregian
I've just driven from Peregian
