about

This is my debut solo single. It's pretty chilled, with funky but laid back electronic beats. This is a one off independent release.

It's a song I started writing in the mid-noughties and then picked up one night and finished it in 2010. I'd completely forgotten about it until I was moving house and found an old song lyrics folder with all my guitar songs. As soon as I heard the song again, in my head, I just had an idea for this trip hip / electro beat and went to work on it and within a couple of days I'd finished it. There's no guitar in this though like when it was first wrote - it's pretty different from the original acoustic version.

Random fact: this song was released on my Dad's birthday.

lyrics

First time I saw you
Couldn’t catch my breath
You were changing the tunes
Sitting at that desk

I cried buckets and barrels
When I got home
Thinking the next and only time I’d hear you
Would be on the radio

But in a few short years
You’d appear again
Just a few short times
For the fates and the hands

You were a free man in paris
Calling at a ranch house on a hill
You are a free man still
Some memories fade to nothing
But this memory stays with me
Well I’m a free man too now
But I won’t force through what the world don’t want us to do
No I won’t force through what the world don’t want us to do
Ranch House, Ranch House On A Hill

Well we had a little time
Somethin' to ourselves
But every time
I was in another world

All the buckets and barrels
That crash through our lives
We soon become immune to
And we’re numb inside

For a few short years
I was living in your land
A few short times
Our fates changed hands
