Where The Ocean Is King lyrics

Born where the salt spray meets the red clay floor Inheriting a rhythm from the ancestor shore My shadow stretches long on the gold dust sand A legacy written by a master's hand Oh, to breathe the air where the ocean is king To feel the heat of the Sun in everything Bahia, you're the heartbeat in my very core I found the home I wasn't looking for The drums are talking in the valley tonight Wrapped in the silver of the coastal light No need for maps when the soul knows the way No need for maps when the soul knows the way We're dancing in the shadows of the holy day Oh, to breathe the air where the ocean is king To feel the heat of the Sun in everything Bahia, you're the heartbeat in my very core I found the home I wasn't looking for Roots deep in the reef and the stone In this light I am never alone The salt in the rhythm, the breath in the lungs A story told in a thousand tongues The Sun goes down, but the heat remains Bahia, my blood, my veins
