Hi everyone! What's a person to do when they get lots of comments that they might have a very British, 80s, maybe even ska-like sound? Take lemons and try to make lemonade, that's what.
For this one, I wanted to get away from any deep and complex lyrics and just go with the genre (ha!), which to me should give the impression (at least!) of informality and fun.
When I was a young person I moved countries a lot, which wasn't great for relationships or social life, and that's what this one's about.
As ever, thanks for listening, and for any constructive and specific comments you might have!
Driving Away
https://soundcloud.com/lutehill/driving-away-11-12-2016bV1:
Here comes frustration, there I go again
The seat by the window only brings me this pain
But what can I do when
My only view
Of you's from a bus or a boat or a plane?
V2:
Here comes separation, I think about us
A plan for a long time but now it's a must
But now comes the day I'm
Driving away
From you on a tram or a train or a bus
CH:
And every time that I just said 'hello' when we met
Comes back now to haunt me and I start to regret
Now you're waving at the station and there's so much to say
The next time will I still be driving away?
V3:
Here comes temptation, to not go so far
And come back and find you wherever you are
But deep down I know that
I've got to go
And I can't stop the plane or the coach or the car
