about

This is the 'oldest' song on the EP. Meaning, I wrote it the summer of my sophomore year in high school. The fact that it made it to my first music release amazes me: most early writings have been revised beyond recognition or have landed in the can. Anyways, this song was written with a girl in mind who I had met and became good friends with while vacationing in South Carolina. Its become one of my favorite to perform live. Enjoy.

lyrics

Amber waves and silver shores, yeah.
Always falling asleep just a bit too soon.
This Carolina atmosphere has me lost in you.
I'll stay for a little while, hold you for a little while,
if you don't mind baby.
I'll break my fears down, take a chance with you
Blow your mind is all I want to do.

It's all about taking chances,
You never know until you try.
Wherever this life takes you,
takes a piece of me with you.

Staying out late, on beached sailboats.
Do you remember the way I held you?
The sound of your voice, and the warmth
of your touch.
And together we'll get there, yeah
we'll get there trust me baby
I'll break your fears down, take a chance with me
I'll hold these memories close.

It's all about taking chances,
You never know until you try.
Wherever this life takes you,
takes a piece of me with you.
