Salt Crust Drying on the Sandstone Steps

[Intro] [Sandstone Steps Footsteps & silence Breeze Foley] Step, crunch... white salt residue drying on the stone A coastal texture that is all our own [Verse 1] [Acoustic Guitar & Rhodes Mark I] Hand-carved staircase leading to the sand Connecting the cliffs to the silence land Salt crust forming in hexagonal lines Shining like a thousand diamond mines Sun evaporates the tidal spray of white Underneath the brilliant California light My bare feet stepping on the warm gold rock Without a single earthly worry or shock [Pre-Chorus] [Upright Bass & Brush Snare] Pelicans diving past the rocky reef Bringing our weary minds relief [Chorus] [Crystalline Sun-Drenched Drop] White salt crystals glistening on the carved sandstone steps Where our peaceful contemplation keeps On the rocky cliffs of the Laguna shore I don't need a single worldly question more Climb slow, gaze out, let the sunshine stay Bringing an unhurried beauty to our day [Verse 2] [Felt Piano & Bassline] I sit on the third step with a sketchbook small Answering the peaceful coastal call The salt breeze dries upon my smiling face Happy right here in this sacred space [Bridge] [Soulful Vocal Belt & Guitar Solo] Oh, the silence leaves its signature in salt Bringing all our frantic rush to halt Stone, salt, sunshine and an honest mind The greatest sanctuary you will ever find [Chorus] [Full Grand Crystalline Climax] White salt crystals glistening on the carved sandstone steps Where our peaceful contemplation keeps On the rocky cliffs of the Laguna shore I don't need a single worldly question more Climb slow, gaze out, let the sunshine stay Bringing an unhurried beauty to our day [Outro] [Footsteps on Stone & Sea Breeze Fading] Salt crust on sandstone... Laguna steps. [Fade Out] [End]
