I had a look at Paul's lyric forum and this caught my eye. It's like a shop....just browsing around.
I know Steffen has is own version which is currently being worked on but I felt the urge to compose something quickly.
If I win the lottery this is another place added to the ever growing list of places I want to visit.
Thanks for listening. San Rafael
Lyrics - Paul Dempsey
Music arrangement and production - Billy Playle
(v1)
They say you can do some healing
Way up here in the North Bay
They say an angel watches over you
Each and every day
(v2)
I've come looking for peace of mind
I've been troubled without you
And I feel the bay breeze gently
Blowing on through
(chorus)
It's peaceful here in San Rafael
And I can tell
I can feel, I'm starting to heal
Yes, I'm gonna get by
I'm gonna do well
Under the skies of San Rafael
(v3)
Standing in the shadow of the Mission
I feel this healing hand
Somehow I'm feeling so calm
Somehow, now I understand
(bridge)
I've left all I had down below
Down below in San Francisco
I left you; something I had to do
Something you knew too
(chorus)
It's peaceful here in San Rafael
And I can tell
I can feel, I'm starting to heal
Yes, I'm gonna get by
I'm gonna do well
Under the skies of San Rafael
