Big Sur lyrics

Highway One
Crystalline-haunted sun
With the Pacific masculine crash
 
My little one
Enthralled by the redwoods
As I ride amongst monarchs and mist
 
Me and Anaïs and Henry and Jack Kerouac
Me and the Ohlone, the Esselen, the Salinan
Me and Julia, Helmuth and Brautigan
All roads lead to Big Sur
All roads home to Big Sur
 
Clear celestial and frogs
Fritz and cabins of logs
Amongst the springs we are barefoot and warmed
 
Me and Anaïs and Henry and Jack Kerouac
Me and the Ohlone, the Esselen, the Salinan
Me and Julia, Helmuth and Brautigan
All roads lead to Big Sur
All roads home to Big Sur
 
I am climbing on the Bluff
Beseeching God to answer us
Not much distracts from our shamanic creek breakfast
This watery heartbeat by the forest
 
Me and Anaïs and Henry and Jack Kerouac
Me and the Ohlone, the Esselen, the Salinan
Me and Julia, Helmuth and Brautigan
All roads home to Big Sur
 
Me and Mickey and a paths high on the Molera
Me and Lolly and Bill watching a red-tailed hawk
Me and the posts take it all in through the big Ventana
All roads lead to Big Sur
All roads home to Big Sur

Hey Juan,
maybe the lyric in the stanza:
"I am climbing on the bluff
Beseeching god to answer us
Not much distracts from our Shaman Baker’y breakfast
This water’y heartbeat by the forest"
is a little bit different?
"I am climbing on the Bluff
Beseeching God to answer us
Not much distracts from our shamanic CREEK breakfast
This WATERY heartbeat by the forest"
it´s makes more sense in my opinion. Please, can you check it? Thanks in advance! LGseestern🌈🦄
