live a little

[Verse 1]
We were jamming on a Thursday night
Sax and keys in a golden glow
Old street humming, windows wide
And you walked in, wild and bright

You said, “What’s that sound you’re making there?”
Eight months round, with fire to spare
A bluesy riff caught in the air
And suddenly, you were everywhere

[Chorus]
Oh Dani, blonde dynamite
Singing loud into the night
Tiny frame, a thunder soul
You stole the room, you made it whole
Dani, you were burning gold
Even storms did what you told
We fought, we laughed, we lost the thread
But your voice still echoes in my head

[Verse 2]
You hit each note like a rebel flare
Fists in pockets, lightning in your stare
We wrote three songs, maybe four
Then slammed the door, then asked for more

You never stayed between the lines
Singing truth, ignoring signs
You taught me that a song can bite
And still be love, and still be right

[Chorus]
Oh Dani, blonde dynamite
Singing loud into the night
Tiny frame, a thunder soul
You stole the room, you made it whole
Dani, you were burning gold
Even storms did what you told
We clashed like jazz in overdrive
But man, with you, music felt alive

[Bridge]
You disappeared like summer haze
But I still hear you, clear as day
In smoky bars, in passing trains
In every bold, unfiltered phrase

[Final Chorus]
Oh Dani, blonde dynamite
Still singing somewhere in the night
You made the house, the band, the fight
A memory wrapped in sound and light
Dani, fire in full bloom
You lit up every dusty room
We were young, raw, half insane
But I’d play it all with you again


One Hell Of A Song
