about

This is a joyful love song celebrating how someone special has changed your world.

This is another track that was around at the time that More Sinner Than Saint was in gestation, but which did not fit the mood of that album, so we were really pleased to have this opportunity to release it. As songwriters, we write as the mood takes us and whilst our roots are firmly in the area of blues and rock, the songs that emerge don't always fit exactly within those genres. Of the large number sitting at the demo stage, some - like this - could fit on an album of the type that our supporters would expect of us, whereas others would represent a complete change of direction. For example, we have songs that could fit on a country album, but that's not for us - at this stage at least!

lyrics

In the last days before you
Long miles of grey
It was all just to get through
This is all I can say

Through your rays of summer
You saw my world
Saw it all and I begged you
Come on, make it work yeah

Let me dance, to your song
Maybe baby I’ll be your special one
Sing it out, all night long
Calling for a sentimental song
Love is here, rain it down
Washing all over my heart

Though I bought you nothing
Just the tunes I make
I believe, yes I’m certain
Something’s come my way and I said

Let me dance, to your song
Maybe baby I’ll be your special one
Sing it out, all night long
Calling for a sentimental song
Love is here, rain it down
Washing all over my heart

Let me dance, to your song
Maybe baby I’ll be your special one
Sing it out, all night long
Calling for a sentimental song
Love is here, rain it down
Washing all over my heart,
Washing all over my heart
