Considering the comments offered so far when I played it in public spaces, I'd venture to say that this particular objective has been achieved.</p><p>No audio nor video clips are available at this point as my game plan for this summer is to make the most of the sunny days and go out busking as often as practicable. In my crystal ball I can foresee myself switching into demo-producing mode sometime around mid-September. That being said, if you've been following my activities of the last few years or so, you know how reliable my crystal ball can be. But there's always hope, right ?</p><p><em><br /> <b>verse 1</b><br /> there's a river running over<br /> the consequences of your errors<br /> putting out all the fires<br /> that burn the fruits of your labours<br /> <br /> you gotta wish it up muse it up<br /> build it up to live it up<br /> you gotta wish it up work it up<br /> build it up<br /> <br /> <b>pre-chorus 1</b><br /> trust in the dream that flows in you<br /> parts of it stream inside me too<br /> when it's ready let it be true<br /> it'll sweep you off outta the blue<br /> <br /> <b>verse 2</b><br /> this turning point you're pining for<br /> is closer than ever before<br /> never lose sight of the plot<br /> and strike the iron when it's hot<br /> <br /> you gotta keep going believing<br /> the ending will be amazing<br /> you gotta keep going believing<br /> keep going<br /> <br /> <b>pre-chorus 2</b><br /> trust the feeling inside of you<br /> the water is flooding me too<br /> out with the old in with the new<br /> this current will bring me to you<br /> <br /> <b>verse 3</b><br /> you've done your best you've passed the test<br /> enjoy the rest you're being blessed<br /> you've wished it up, you've built it up<br /> now live it up<br /> <br /> <b>pre-chorus 3</b><br /> trust the feeling inside of you<br /> the water is flooding me too<br /> out with the old in with the new<br /> this current will bring me to you<br /> <br /> <b>chorus</b><br /> no way to stop<br /> this tide of positive change<br /> the surf is up<br /> let the wave rearrange<br /> cream of the crop<br /> time to reap your reward<br /> expect the top<br /> you have worked so hard<br /></em></p><div align="center">·</div><p></p><p style="font-size:x-small;border:1px solid #AAAAAA;"><br /> <em><br /> The « <em>30 Songs for the Sunny Season</em> » series presents songs written in the aim of building a repertoire of originals that require only guitar and vocals, without additional arrangements, and thus can be performed in a busking context.<br /></em></p></div>
