The very first song I wrote both music & lyrics for. Recorded live during band practice. - Me: Acoustic Guitar, Vocals - Tim Wagner: Electric Guitar - Rob Heacock: Drums - Patrick Mullin: Bass
I'm just getting started with songwriting. Been playing guitar for many years on and off, almostl exclusively covers.
Story behind the song
Plans to attend the 2007 Santa Cruz Blues festival with friends fell through for a couple of the guys. I ended up being the only guy from the group. The girls and I had a blast! Ended up partying at the beach that night. Good times.
Lyrics
[verse]
well we've waited quite a while
for this day to finally come
those plans all fell apart
but we should try to have some fun
[verse]
all your men somehow got trapped
in other places for today
they shout out from the distance
but their voices fade away
[chorus]
you've got the time
and I've got some cash
we should ride the night away
to where waves roar
and the sky explodes
when the fires crash, crash, crash
we'll fly
[verse]
you're such a powerful soul
to bring us faces from your past
you can burn the fog away
to give us sunshine that'll last
[verse]
you dance like no one's watching
when the music's nice and loud
and when the beat gets freaky
you can really please the crowd
[bridge]
we can take the bus to the other side of town
and make friends with crazy people
we'll make ourselves at home no matter where we go
walk the streets
hit the clubs
go see a drag queen show
[chorus]
you've got the time
and I've got some cash
we should ride the night away
to where waves roar
and the sky explodes
when the fires crash, crash, crash
we'll fly, we'll fly, we'll fly, we'll fly
