This Is Chris Isaak

Graduation Day - Chris Isaak

It's what it is

Go Home Brianna is a surf-inspired ballad with rich vocal harmonies in the style of the Beach Boys. On the surface, it sounds like a tender love song, but the lyrics tell a deeper story of a relationship tested by late nights, struggles, and the moment when caring becomes letting go. With its dreamy, romantic chorus and bittersweet imagery, Go Home Brianna blends classic surf pop with storytelling that’s as haunting as it is beautiful.

LYRICS
(C)2025 Ggreg Snyder

[Verse 1]
We were laughing in the neon glow,
Dancing fast while the night moved slow.
I held your hand, but your eyes looked far,
Like you’d drifted to another star.

[Chorus]
Go home, Brianna, it’s late tonight,
The waves are gone, but the moon’s still bright.
I’ll walk you back, though I know it’s true,
I might be losing more than you.

[Verse 2]
I pretended not to see the signs,
Turned my head for a sweeter time.
But the music stopped, and the floor grew still,
And I almost called as you climbed that hill.

[Chorus]
Go home, Brianna, it’s late tonight,
The waves are gone, but the moon’s still bright.
I’ll walk you back, though I know it’s true,
I might be losing more than you.

[Bridge]
You cried out loud, said I was wrong,
For holding on when the night felt long.
But it took an hour just to let you be,
Safe at last by your own front key.

[Final Chorus]
Go home, Brianna, the tide has turned,
The flame was bright, but the fire burned.
I’ll walk away with the dawn’s first hue,
And never see the end of you.
