The duo runs from the law and evades the police
Their wild crime spree did not slow or cease
Bank robberies gave them half million each
Their next target is jewelry store at Redondo Beach

California oceans live in my heart
driving along the familiar coast
From one city to another
signals change and meander
oh how those moments resonate
inside an ache of longing
The pelicans and seagulls
waves crashing along the sand
crowded piers and restaurants
surfers changing near their cars
Every beach is different
from Redondo to Huntington
Long Beach and San Pedro
and everywhere in between
Each place a blurred memory
haunting within like chimes in the wind
surely a part of me remains
somewhere along that old PCH

~Love~
(Redondilla)
Love gives it all and love forgive
Love is tender and love is kind
Life better when true love you find
Love can make us feel more alive
Love is great and love is sweet
Love for sure always comes to mind
Love can't be defined, loves always kind
Love is free loves delicious treat
Of nothing Lord wants us afraid
Love faith hope and peace thru God spread
With his love heal if wrong was fed
God's love is greater than all said.

The Redondilla Origin:
Early 18th century. From Spanish redondilla from redondo round + -illa, after French rondeau or one of its cognates.

Oh, I'm Rithee Rithwando
And I live in a condo
On a beach called Redondo
With a girl who's bleach blondo.
And we practice Tae Kwon Do
As we're singing in Rondo
With Don Hector Elizondo
Whom we're very, very fondo.
And he once asked me, "Cuando
"Can you post bail bondo,
"For I'm stuck in Orlondo
"And I cannot abscondo."
"When you give me your Hondo
"Whose top speed is beyondo,"
So sez I to Hectorondo
From the sands of blue Redondo.
"Oye! Not for il mondo
"Or el mejor magic wando
"Would I give you my Hondo,"
Replied Mister Elizondo.
"See you next year," I told him.
