Hope it goes without saying but I'll say it.. I write Character songs about life, love, loss in culture around us.....and true songs on the love of Jesus Christ
Ain't Really Where I Wanna Be. Greg Valentine 2016 Jerry Mynatt 2016
High as a kite on this white sand beach
Running from life's tide pulling at me
I bring them pesos and they bring me drinks
Until The world disappears out of reach
But that ain't really where I wanna be
I've been gypsy free running lost highways
looking for some exit sign to a higher place
Felt Carolina sunshine and Colorado snow
Towns with people and possibilities
But that ain't really where I wanna be
She had my heart she had my soul
I was never gonna let her go
Never wanted nothing more
Until I did
I followed some restless rebel voice
Till I was riding shotgun with my choice
Wish I could tell that stupid boy
How its gonna feel in the end
I've seen beautiful nights only freedom can bring
I've held onto angels who've held onto me
Slow motion kisses like a movie scene
Trying to fill some empty need
But that ain't really where I wanna be
She had my heart she had my soul
I was never gonna let her go
Never wanted nothing more
Until I did
I followed some restless rebel voice
Till I was riding shotgun with my choice
Wish I could tell that stupid boy
How its gonna feel in the end
Now the sun's diving down on this Mexican beach
Waves on the water nearly reaching my feet
A band plays El Rey from the balcony
And I order another drink
Watch a beautiful red sunset sink
But that ain't really where I wanna be
No that ain't really where I wanna be
