Story behind the song
One day this past January, I had a day off. A FREEDAY. Creating this song is how I spent my day. And then came many days in the studio adding the other parts. All parts performed by Mark Wheatley - except for the high harmony in the chorus by Fran Cincotta.
Lyrics
(Chorus)
FREEDAY
FREEDAY
FREEDAY
Dreaming of the day
when all the world is play
Dreaming of you with me
A day just for you and me
and a perfect day to be
Here's another day of work
Work can't pay forever
Nothing lasts forever
Jumping, hopping, hanging,
climbing higher
Running, hiding, searching,
finding surprises
Dancing, sailing, flying,
making funny faces
Pretending, trading, imagining,
telling stories
Watching, walking, talking,
holding hands
Traveling, roaming, wandering,
crossing other lands
Seeking, finding, having,
holding treasure
Sensual, scenting, sensing,
breathing aromas
Looking, giving, changing,
seeing each other
Laughing, singing, touching,
bringing love
Everything is play on this day
FREEDAY
FREEDAY
FREEDAY
FREEDAY
Another day of work
Memories of play
Dreams of you with me
On our next FREE DAY
