Story Behind The Song

Finding your soul mate. All worries when you were alone no longer matter. Verse one: A couple sitting contently looking out to the horizon, all is serene. Verse 2: Description, Playing a gig in the bar as part of a heavy aggresive metal band. I was unaware that my now girlfreind was watching and we started talking after the gig. The band lifestyle was problematic but I was in denial.

Lyrics

So here we are alone,
I'm holding you hand in my own.
Moments like this will stay with me forever.

Looking out to the sky,
I raise my hand to shade out the light.
Staring towards ghost landscapes far away.

I've lost all thoughts of lonliness.
It's all just a vague memory cos the past melts away when you're close to me.


A chance meeting without prior notice.
This page on my sketchbook was blank.
I thought I was in charge of this life, take away the blindfold to reveal the surprise.

Short sighted I did not spot you watching a performance of arrogance and flare.
How humbling it was to be approached for a new conversation.

I've lost all thoughts of sadness, It's all just a vague memory cos the past melts away when you're close to me.

I'm riding this new wave.
Ready to be brave.
I've leapt into new space to hit the ground running.

You've pulled me away from the darkness, the light in your eyes sets me free.
The light in your eyes sets me free,
The past melts away when you're close to me, The past melts away when you're...., the past melts away when you're.....
