Everybody's Lost

I really enjoyed writing this song. I think it might be one of those "Keepers" that happen only once in a while.  Here is a YouTube Video of the recorded performances: https://youtu.be/HQ1OglZSTrg

LYRICS:
When you finally put down the news
When you finally kick off your shoes
I hope that you find a good place in your mind
And to leave all your worries so far from behind
And remembering all of the little times you smiled

Tell you not to worry no more
Leave your troubles back at the door
I am a gift that you bought far away 
And a memory of such a wonderful stay
And I hope that you think of returning to me one day

I can be your souvenir, babe
From another hemisphere, babe
See you in another year, babe
I can be your souvenir, babe

Take you on a holiday
Just a little look away
Won't you come back to a book in the shade
And a tropical drink that I've already paid
And the smell of the air is all I need to persuade

I can be your souvenir, babe
From another hemisphere, babe
See you in another year, babe
I can be your souvenir, babe

I can be your souvenir, babe
Tell you what you wanna hear, babe
Memory is so sincere, babe
I can be your souvenir, babe

I was listening to a lot of Jack Johnson this week, and tried to write a similar style song. If you're unfamiliar, Jack Johnson writes laid-back pop songs. He is a surfer and singer/songwriter from Hawaii, USA and has sold millions of records since the early 2000's. I never listened to his music until a few weeks ago, when I had some requests from a few people at my shows. 

Thanks for listening. 
Sorry for the low quality recording. 
I'm sure I'll rerecord it later this year. 
That's how much I like this song idea.
