Homemade tunes from NorthWest England
Home recordings from my little studio in North West UK
Story behind the song
The chorus was inspired by a throw away comment from my friend Bjorn....talking about some individuals near his home, he said "They just sit there all day and night, drinking strong wine, watching flowers grow and talking bullsh*t!" I like that line..... ;-)
I guess the sentiment is that sometimes, you just have to let it all wash over you......
Lyrics
summer came then went away
theres not a lot that i can say
to make you understand the way i feel
i loved you then and a love you now
its hard for me to know just how
you stuck with me thru all my crazy deals
unconditional surrender
will be your friend and sole defender
melt into the background knowing
its all for real, the feelings growing
Sitting in the rain
i'm really glad you came
talk some bull sh** , watch the flowers grow
drink some wine and we'll dream
drifting off upstream
chasin rainbows searching high and low
goin with the flow
-----------------------------------------
Playing games and taking chances
all wrapped up in circumstances
you never know you can until you try
no one ever thought to mention
happiness is your own invention
peace of mind is impossible to buy
unconditional surrender
will be your friend and sole defender
melt into the background knowing
its all for real, the feelings growing
Sitting in the rain
i'm really glad you came
talk some bull sh** , watch the flowers grow
drink some wine and we'll dream
drifting off upstream
chasin rainbows searching high and low
goin with the flow
