Boy meets girl in Florida. After a whirlwind romance, girl runs away, leaving boy wondering what went wrong.

Been there, done that...

Verse 1:
When I think about you girl
And those nights in Matlacha
I never had a sweeter time
Even right up ?til today
We made some magic memories
Just you and I and that cool sea breeze
Chorus:
Floridian nights
Southern stars above the water
Floridian nights
And the magic in your eyes
Verse 2:
When I held your hand in mine
With the sand beneath our feet
The wind would whisper promises
That I always thought we?d keep
We made some magic memories
Just you and I and that cool sea breeze
Chorus:
Floridian nights
Southern stars above the water
Floridian nights
And the magic in your eyes
Bridge:
But then I slept in late one day
I opened up my eyes and you?d slipped away
You disappeared without a trace
But I just can?t forget your face
Chorus:
Floridian nights
Southern stars above the water
Floridian nights
And the magic in your eyes
Floridian nights
Southern stars above the water
Floridian nights
And the magic in your smile

When you've hit rock bottom the only way to look is up.

Been there, done that....

Verse 1:
When I see my life stretchin? out before me
Such a long lonely road
I get a little uneasy, maybe even queasy,
Wondering which way to go
I slave away all day, working sixteen hours
Never seem to have no fun
I?m on a losing streak, feelin? kinda weak
You might think I?m done
Chorus:
But I?m a diehard dreamer with a vision in mind
And I?m gonna make my dreams come true
I?m gonna play my guitar on stage every night
And sing this song for you
Verse 2:
You know I got no money, man it isn?t funny
But I?m doing the best I can
Well you may think I?m lazy, some would call me crazy
A man without a plan
I got my share of troubles, maybe even double
And sometimes I get blue
I?m facing liquidation, what a situation
You might think I?m through
Chorus:
But I?m a diehard dreamer with a vision in mind
And I?m gonna make my dreams come true
I?m gonna play my guitar on stage every night
And sing this song for you

After enough mohitos you WILL dance just like me....

Been there, done that.

Chorus:
Won?t you try this dance? I made it up last night
The ten mohito stagger is a wonderful sight
Just a wiggle and a wobble - a stumble and a reel
The greatest thing about it is the way it makes you feel
Verse 1:
I invented it late last night as I was leaving the bar,
Headed for the street
When I hit the steps I discovered I had two wobbly knees,
And a pair of rubber feet
It?s one step forward and two steps back
With a sideways jerk to get you back on track
Chorus:
Won?t you try this dance? I made it up last night
The ten mohito stagger is a wonderful sight
Just a wiggle and a wobble - a stumble and a reel
The greatest thing about it is the way it makes you feel
Verse 2:
It?s funny how blurry things get with that rum double vision
Pounding in you head
It?s hard to be graceful man when you don?t have a clue
Where you feet may tread
It?s one step forward and two steps back
With a sideways jerk to get you back on track
Bridge:
All you need is a few more mohitos
I know that you?ll see you can dance just like me
C?mon! Do it now!
Verse 3:
Start out with a couple mohitos and do it again
And again and again
Keep it up and pretty soon you?ll be ready to dance
When you finish number ten
It?s one step forward and two steps back
With a sideways jerk to get you back on track
