Let Air In
Comment Share
Simple rock ditty. Lots of acoustic guitars. Think of the Waterboys, or James.
Songwriter, do-it-himselfer, jack of all trades.
Not a band, just a songwriter with a lot of creativity and determination.

Story behind the song
This is a song about how relationships, though wonderful, can be suffocating and can even deteriorate our sense of selves; and about how sometimes, despite our better natures, we just have to let those we love be themselves, and in turn go their own way.
Lyrics
She’s got eyes like the deep blue sea Shiny locks like wheat That dance about in the breeze But you can’t breathe Let air into your life She’s into the great unknown Reshaping the rocks and stones The winds of change have blown The water’s gone Let air into your life She’ll open the windows But lock all the doors So you can only see outside And once you’re in She’ll lose sight of why She let you in to her life To the elements exposed The palace you built erodes From the rain like the tears you choke Just let her go Let Erin to her life Let Erin to her life
