Dale Haywood

Dale Haywood is a singer/songwriter from Colora, Maryland. After several cover bands and years of live gigs Dale decided to attempt recording his own songs. With the help of several friends, Dale has recorded a large catalogue of original music. His music covers everything from Country to Blues to Rock, but all of it has a heavy southern influence. Most of the recordings were created in his home studio and none of them would have been possible without the generosity and creativity of some very talented friends. Dale continues to write, record, and occasionally perform his music whenever given the opportunity.

Story behind the song

My dad and mom are leading a very active retirement right now but while myself and my two brothers were growing up this is what we watched them do almost every day. There's nothing like a kiss from the one you love to motivate you to endure another day.

Lyrics

That Kiss

Every mornin’ he sits alone
A cup of coffee and the day’s first smoke
Stares out the window and dreads the day ahead

Looks down at calloused hands
Feels a pain rollin’ through his back
Wonders why he ever got out of bed

He hears her wakin’ up
Then he pours her first cup
He always has it ready when she walks in

There she stands in that ‘ol cotton gown
Her hairs a mess and hangin’ down
Starts her day with a kiss, he smiles and feels young again

Then it all comes back to him, his reason for everyday
With that kiss she takes the pain away
She makes him feel the way he did way back when
Tomorrow he’ll be sittin’ there
Waitin’ on that kiss again

-SOLO-

Spend the mornin’ makin’ small talk
Now its time to take that walk
The hardest part of his day is gettin’ out the door

She follows him with his lunch in her hand
Then she kisses him again
And lets him know when he gets home she’ll be waitin’ right there for more

Then it all comes back to him, his reason for everyday
With that kiss she takes the world away
She makes him feel the way he did way back when
Tomorrow he’ll be sittin’ there
Waitin’ on that kiss again
