Wow, the ascent of the balloons at the end of the song! Great work Dave, I like this song a lot!

Dave, this is GREAT!!  Very fine sound!!!

Great lyrics that exemplify the British way of life. A modern day folk song. Cool.

Wounderful song Great lyrics. Nice work 👍 👏

Ha, quite a plot twist in the lyrics, smiling from ear to ear.  Great shuffle rhythm throughout and the end leaves one wondering how the fantasy worked out:) A cool listen, front to back.

Lyrics

Coming up for air, find myself some time to escape somewhere
Perhaps a weekend by the sea, just you and me
We'll have fish and chips and stone skimming championships
The loser buys the drinks

It's just nice to leave behind 
the mortgage and the bills and the daily grind

Or we could steal ourselves a rocket ship and fly away to Mars
Stick a flag on it we'll call it ours

It's just nice to leave behind
the mortgage and the bills and the daily grind
To pack away our troubles and just leave them all behind
And unwind 

I'll let you into a little secret but you must promise me you'll keep it quiet
I've a perfect plan to rob a bank
All I needs a fast car and some dynamite

And then it would be nice to forever leave behind
the mortgage and the bills and the daily grind
Oh it would be oh so nice to forever leave behind 
the mortgage and the bills and the daily grind......

Coming Up For Air

Hello,
Here are some songs wot I wrote. Mostly recorded at home as a sort of one man band set up.
Sometimes other musicians play on the tunes too.

A little stroll on the mild side 🎧

"Dave was awarded 4th best tambourinist in his cul de sac whilst still only 37, he still plays tambourine today whilst his peers have abandoned tambourine. Think that speaks volumes to Dave's commitment to his music". (Big Hits Magazine}



I have a tendency to remove songs to tweak them and reload. Sometimes they never return 🤔

Headphones recommended.
