Lyrics
[Verse 1]
She came down from the north
With sand in her shoes
A map in her purse
And nothing to lose
He said, “Mira, baby”
By the fruit stand gate
With honey on his tongue
And trouble in his face
[Pre-Chorus]
She liked his slow smile
She liked his sharp eyes
Like a warning sign
She’d still kiss twice
He knew her hometown
By the cold in her hands
She knew his secrets
By the way he stands
[Chorus]
Pura vida, baby
Hold me like a storm
Pura vida, baby
Keep me dark and warm
American girl
Costa Rican boy
Pura vida, baby
Break me, then restore
[Verse 2]
Her red motel dress
On a thrift-store chair
His wet black hair
And a stare that dares
They danced in the heat
Near a half-closed bar
She said, “Don’t go soft”
He said, “That’s what we are”
[Pre-Chorus]
She liked his slow smile
She liked his sharp eyes
Like a warning sign
She’d still kiss twice
He knew her hometown
By the cold in her hands
She knew his secrets
By the way he stands
[Chorus]
Pura vida, baby
Hold me like a storm
Pura vida, baby
Keep me dark and warm
American girl
Costa Rican boy
Pura vida, baby
Break me, then restore
[Bridge]
When the thunder came
He pulled her in close
She said, “Tell me the truth”
He said, “I’ll tell you most”
Her name on his mouth
Like salt on a knife
His palm on her waist
Made a prayer of her life
[Final Chorus]
Pura vida, baby
Hold me like a storm
Pura vida, baby
Keep me dark and warm
American girl
Costa Rican boy
Pura vida, baby
Break me, then restore
