Liner Notes

A bit of wishful thinking. Just guitar and Vox

Lyrics

I’m waiting for those sunset dreams
They seem a long way off
Blood red sun, edge of town
Not a cloud in the sky

Instead the sky is overcast
Threat of snow in the air
Wind from the north east
Rules out trying beachwear

We always get so complacent
When January has gone
But weather has some surprises
To show it isn’t done, yet

I’m dreaming of those balmy skies
Flocks of geese, flying by
Reflected in your awesome eyes
I’m dreaming of those balmy skies

Lovely. What a gorgeous, simple soundscape. Your vocals are beautiful and work nicely with that gentle guitar tone. This one really resonates as I look out at the freshly fallen snow outside.

I'm with you on this. Too overcast to even see the sun here and it feels like it's been that way for ever. So many deft touches in this but that throwaway "...yet" at the end of the bridge is my favourite. This one's definitely a keeper.
