Pura vida
Costa Rica
Pura vida
Costa Rica

We arrive in paradise
Left the sprawl
For the pure life

Everywhere
I see emerald green
Sloths swingin'
From the top of the trees

Even money
Look so nice in Costa Rica
But I had to spend it
To buy me some coconuts, ahhh

We rent a car
We were afraid would break down
But got us everywhere so
Safe and sound

Pura vida
Costa Rica
Pura vida
Costa Rica

Hot springs
Heated by volcano
The cool rain
Washing us so peaceful
Yellow maraca
Natures shampoo
Now I'm smelling proper
Best I ever used
Zipping down the jungle
So high on natures juice
Walking like a drunkard
Across suspended bridges
Parrots and cicadas
Ferns and mushroom tribes
Life is so courageous
I love it's permutations
Sensations and vibrations
That lift the spirit high
Memories with friends
I'll always keep inside

Pura vida
Costa Rica
Pura vida
Costa Rica

'Member when it rained
And the town got flooded
Thunder so loud
Thought I should take cover
5 dollar poncho
Now I so love it
Walked all around
Tryin to find a warm oven
Asking directions
All given different
Seemed like the place
Did not exist
Then we found a house
Over a bridge
Seemed a long shot
Then we realized yes
Welcomed inside
Like a valued guest
Bohemian cafe
This was it!
Living room
Kitchen
Hand written menus
Sat there soaking
Soaking it in
Lizard on the wall
chillin' doin' his thing
Husband and wife
Making home cooked meals
Soulful music
Even played Coltrane
When the food arrived
pleasure was insane

Pura vida
Costa Rica
Pura vida
