Story Behind the Song
I wrote this song as a tribute to my husband, the one constant in my world and my world travels.
Lyrics
Been to Notre Dame, sunned beneath the palms
Of the beaches on Belize
Been to Katmandu, followed a Saddu
Sailed the ocean blue and green
Lost in old Bangkok, climbed up Ayer's Rock
Lived without a lock or key
Been to Marakesh, seen all of the rest
Still you are the best for me.
Chorus:
But from the sun rising on the Sahara
To the sun sinking into the sea
From last Tuesday to every manana
You have captured me, darling dear
You have captured me
Took on a new personna just for Barcelona
Roaming all alone-a, poor me
Maybe outside Brisbane, or perhaps Lisbon
I don't know where I've been to date
Could have been in White Horse, I don't recall the source
But it was you of course for me
Now I'm in your embrace, longing to kiss my face
I'm just a crazy case for love
(repeat chorus)
Bridge:
But I've shed salty tears in old Tangiers
And in Dehli I got sick to my belly
Things are not the same since Bahrein
I've been seasick, I've been jetlagged,
I've been culture-shocked insane
(repeat chorus)
