Let Go

1. Intro - Track no. 1 from 'The Meadow'

The Meadow, released April 6th 2023, is Bay Bryan's debut studio album. It consists of 10 tracks and conceptually takes place in a self-created fantasy space designed to keep one safe, idle and in a day-dream of sorts. However, underneath the “golden” rays of comfort lies a feeling of discord —a truth: that we no longer belong in this meadow anymore. The songs & interludes, both directly and indirectly, explore an ongoing push-and-pull —to stay or to leave. By the end of the album we finally take those much needed steps “Beyond The Meadow,” marking an end to a chapter and the beginning of a new adventure, one that is “blue…”

Lyrics:

Drifting into a new dream
We were holding to the old ways
Ready for a change

Thinking ‘oh we’ve got a life to live’
Let’s stop wasting it waiting

Let’s get over the old ways
And dive into the new

Where I do not own you
And you do not owe me anything

Where we are just two drifting 

Aching for some rhythm
I wanna go outside
In the night 
And fly with you
In our blue suede dance shoes

Your lips I’ll be kissin’
As we ride on the waves
That will take us away
Our sound-wave escape

Oh this is where love grows
Out beyond the safety of the meadow

Drifting

Where you do not own me
And I do not owe you anything 
Where I do not own you
And you do not owe me anything

Drifting
