Forever On the Emerald Coast

Verse 1
Emerald coast of Florida
Down on the Gulf of Mexico
She says she's got to go
Memories of childhood
Walks along the beach holding Dad's hand
And castles in the sand

Chorus
A lifetime has come and gone measured by weekends
Visiting the place her heart has always been
One day she'll say goodbye to the life she knows
And live forever on the Emerald Coast

Verse 2
Redneck Rivera
Is not what it use to be when she was small
Progress consumes us all
But standing on the snow white sand
Looking out onto the emerald sea
It's the same as it use to be

Chorus
A lifetime has come and gone measured by weekends

Visiting the place her heart has always been
One day she'll say goodbye to the life she knows
And live forever on the Emerald Coast

Bridge
From the days of a young girl's laughter
Through spring breaks and all years after
In her heart, she has always known
No matter the time or sacrifice
One day she'll return to paradise
And make the Gulf of Mexico her home

Instrumental

Chorus
A lifetime has come and gone measured by weekends
Visiting the place her heart has always been
One day she'll say goodbye to the life she knows
And live forever on the Emerald Coast
She's going to say goodbye to the life she knows
And live forever on the Emerald Coast
