about

El Matador Beach is a celebration of The Life Force, which breathes waves in and out in a ceaseless cycle, and breathes life within us. I hope it moves you.

lyrics

I held your heart on El Matador Beach
Breathing with the waves
Birds flew ahead just out of reach
In the shade beneath the cave

A girl in pink and yellow danced by
In the land of golden youth
I love you so much that it made me cry
For the sad, sad joy of the truth

Oh, hear the waves, washing clean away
Inhaling and exhaling, day after day

Try as we might, we'll never, ever control the ocean
Stop the day from becoming the night,
The minutes from drifting in motion

Oh, hear the waves, washing clean away
Inhaling and exhaling, day after day

Where are the moments past
Oh, they didn't last
And I learned too late

So many seashells kept
So many teardrops wept at the hands of fate

Oh, hear the waves, breathing on and on
They're not gonna pause for a moment
After we are gone

Oh They're not gonna pause for a moment
After we are gone
