This song is called Waiheke because it was penned on location on Waiheke Island on the balcony of Kiwi House up from Little Oneroa Beach. A stunning location and so much to write about. This song is a collaboration between myself and Hayden Baker. His riffs and musical ideas make writing much easier.
lyrics
WAIHEKE
Watching the clouds roll back from the sky
Catching a glimpse of life in my eye
With you...with you
Waves wash in and rest on the shore
Say Goodnight but I want more
With you...with you
Smile on my face red wine in my hand
Watching your footprints dance on the sand
Till the morning comes and I'll wake up
And we'll start all over again
A cheeky smile with an ice cream cone
With you it feels like home
And I can promise you you'll never have to be on your own
I'll be with you
Days of bliss in this crazy place
Looks of love sweep across your face
With you...I'm with you
Feelings that I just can't help
Finally I've found myself
With you...with you
Endless days with nothing planned
Moonlit walking hand in hand
Till the morning comes and I'll wake up
And we'll start all over again
You and me where we belong
All is right with nothing wrong
And I can promise you you'll never have to be on your own
I'll be with you
Life is short but the love is long
Your words are my perfect song
And I can promise you you'll never have to be on your own
I'll be with you
