One man band experimenting in the basement.
The Bad Hawaiian Shirts is a solo project but I am open to bringing in other musicians to collaborate from time to time. I record for the fun of it, in the basement"Almost all the early recordings were instrumentals but I am now experimenting with vocals.
Story behind the song
This is an imagining of a chance encounter on a train
Lyrics
Just another morning on another day
Just another journey on another train
Through a crowd of strangers just another face
One that I remember from another place
So many memories flooding my mind
So many pictures frozen in time
I had forgotten so many things
Now I remember all of my sins
I was so young,
You were so wise,
I was so foolish,
Telling lies,
I was so cold,
I was so vain,
Sorry I caused you all that pain.
And at that moment, I catch your eye,
Can you see through my brilliant disguise,
Just another story, for another mile,
Just another chapter from another life.
Time seems to slow down, years slip away,
Should I approach you, what would I say,
Just another romance, from another time,
Just a distant station, on another line.
We were so young,
We were so wild,
We were so foolish,
Living lies,
I was so proud,
You were so sure,
When you turned away,
And closed the door.
Just another journey, on another line,
For just two people, two worlds collide,
Do you remember, all the things we said,
All the plans forgotten, all the dreams are dead.
