lyrics

I remember when we were young
driving fast in your car til the evening sun
like the road up ahead was made for us
and the radio played like a serenade for us
and all we ever wanted was everything
and all we ever had, nothing but each other
I remember when we were young
driving fast in your car til the evening sun
never knowing where it was taking us

I can remember
tracing the shapes on your face
with my fingertips
I close my eyes and try to go back there

Days to Remember

do you wanna go?
do you wanna disappear with me?

I can remember
tracing the shapes on your face
with my fingertips
I close my eyes and try to go back there
I can remember
tracing the shapes on your face
with my fingertips
I close my eyes and try to go back there

Days to Remember
Days to Remember

and I want to be with you
when I take my last breath
and slowly drift away to that day

I can remember
tracing the shapes on your face
with my fingertips
I close my eyes and try to go back there

Days to Remember
Days to Remember
Days to Remember

from The Stars & Ground, released November 15, 2019
This song is a collaboration with Marcel Agterhuis. He and I wrote a song together a few years ago called "In Retrograde". It was such an enjoyable and creative exercise that I jumped at the opportunity to join forces again on this track. Marcel had already developed the musical and instrumental template for this track and it was my role to write melody, lyrics, and deliver the vocal performance. Once I sat with the music for a few minutes the melodies and lyrics poured out rather quickly; which I would attribute to Marcel's evocative composition connecting with me in a very deep way. I added a little tremelo guitar to compliment the soundscape and "Days to Remember" was born. The lyric is of deep, personal meaning to me but I wanted to write it in a way that would hit a universal chord to anyone that listens. It was a great joy to partner with Marcel on this song. I am extremely proud of the result and I hope he is too.
