Tried to get a "Hawaiian" sound on the guitar to fit the lyrics. Used a DD battery on an electric guitar to get that "slide" effect.

Story behind the song
We wrote this on the evening that we found out were going to Hawaii to visit a good friend. We ended up getting married while there.
Lyrics
Toes in the sand, guitar in hand
Sipping on a cocktail
Smoking our favorite brand
Watching the sunset
In the reflection in your eyes
Underneath the palm trees
And blue Hawaiian skies
Far away from we were
Closer to where we want to be
Embracing every single moment
Of this ISLAND DREAM
No worries 'bout the future
Few regrets from the past
Living in this moment
'Cuz life goes by so fast
The ocean listens
While the waves sing harmony
And I keep drifting out
Of reality
Far away from we were
Closer to where we want to be
Embracing every single moment
Of this ISLAND DREAM
