Story Behind The Song

This song was written in 2002. I finally got the nerve to go traveling by myself because, being single, if I waited for family and friends I wouldn?t go anywhere. Before I left for Jamaica I met this girl Sherry and she was beautiful. I was going to Jamaica the next day, so it would have been ridiculous to invite her after knowing her for a few hours. I figured when I got back we would go on a date. Jamaica was great, when I got back to NY Sherry was seeing some other guy and we never did date?

Oh Sherry I?m going to Jamaica, and I can?t wait yeah
I wish you were going but we met so late now
When I get back I promise we will go on that date now
So Sherry I?ll be thinking of you and of our fate now
If we met a month sooner I would want you to come along yeah
But we met today and I must say that would be wrong yeah
So I?ll fly in the sky and go to where the sun is oh so strong, yeah
And thinking of you back home while I write this song, yeah Oh
When I land on the island I will feel the hot hot sun yeah
I?ll be thinking of you in the snow and it wont be fun yeah
So when I return with a bright sunburn that?s well done, yeah
We can go on that date and let fate see if we?ll be one yeah
