Of all of Jimmy Buffet's great songs, this is the obscure song that touches me the most. It's about that place where you are truly home.
"But there's this one particular harbour
So far but yet so near
Where I see the days as they fade away
And finally disappear"
It's that place that forever calls out to you. The place (the harbor) can be a physical place, a person, a family, or even a spiritual place. Beautiful song.
"I know I don't get there often enough
But God knows I surely try
It's a magic kind of medicine
That no doctor could prescribe"
"I know I don't get there often enough

I think your quotes and this quote describe exactly what you were saying. It is that escape you have from the crazy life most of us live now a days. It's wherever your perfect place of happiness happens to be. Jimmy Buffett is my favorite all time artist and his songs are amazingly deep and meaningful... even if he plays his free easygoing persona....

I like your way of looking at it LaBradford.
