Living and Loving in Matlacha

[Intro] [fingerstyle acoustic guitar, clean electric guitar lead] [Verse 1] [male vocals] Golden sun dipping low Down on Charlotte Harbor Bay Peaceful waters winding through another quiet day [female vocals enter] Warm gulf breezes rustling through the pine trees and the palms Found a little piece of heaven right here in your arms [Chorus] [full band enters, male and female vocal harmonies] We settled down in Charlotte County, built a life so sweet Where the Peace River and the Myakka come to meet Kick off our boots at sunset, watch the blue heron fly Ain't no place I'd rather be under this Florida sky [Verse 2] [female vocals] Morning coffee on the porch, watching the tide rolling in Living in this hidden gem, feeling blessed again [male vocals] Simple days and gentle nights, hands held tight and true Every moment spent down here is sweeter next to you [Chorus] [male and female vocal harmonies] Living and loving in Matlacha Where the river meets the tide And time just slows away Surrounded by the beauty, holding you so tight In this sunshine paradise, everything feels right From the quiet morning calm to the stars above In Matlacha, Florida, we found our forever love [Bridge] [acoustic guitar strumming, pedal steel swells] Old wooden docks and local spots where everybody knows How the simple life down south just heals a person's soul Cast a line into the blue, watch the light start to fade Best decisions of my life were every one we made [Chorus] [full band, high energy] Living and loving in Matlacha Where the river meets the tide And time just slows away Surrounded by the beauty, holding you so tight In this sunshine paradise, everything feels right From the quiet morning calm to the stars above In Matlacha, Florida, we found our forever love [Outro] [electric guitar solo] Years roll on like the river flows Hand in hand wherever we go Deep in the heart of Florida This is where we belong Living and loving in Matlacha Sweet southern paradise Holding you tight underneath the Florida moon shining so bright Living and loving, loving and living right here in Matlacha [acoustic guitar outro, final chord]
