Like Before

This is a song I wrote about from a memory that’s stuck with me for a long time about my teenage days and how it felt to connect with someone for the first time.

After a night out we split up from the rest of our friends and ended up talking for hours together and having so much fun together but also relaxing until we fell asleep by the lake. So it’s kind of like a retelling of a personal experience but I’m hoping you can all relate in some way or another. ☺️ 

Where I was when I wrote the song.

The song was wrote in a few different places over time. And I actually started writing the song in my garden first after feeling really inspired to write something new.
By the time I went outside it was pretty dark so I couldn’t sing or play too loudly but the moon and the stars were out and this memory from my life came flooding back so I decided to start writing the song. ☺️

In the next few days I actually drove to a to a lake nearby in Ferry Meadows Peterborough and it really helped to jog some more memories and helped inspire me to write more and recall more from the night itself. 

Then the last few details and changes were made in the Studio with my producer where the song was brought to life and really brings me back to that moment when I listened to it.

Lyrics

The night drew to a close 
Ripples on the lake from skipping stones
The moonlight hits your face, it’s so beautiful 

It’s The dimple on your nose 
It’s The way your face lights up when you tell your jokes
The moonlight bathes your skin, and it’s so beautiful 

Ripples from our hearts 
Ripples from our hearts
they go 
Skipping through the dark 
Skipping through the dark 
Like stones
When we’re alone 
Ripples from our hearts 
Ripples from our hearts
they go 
Skipping through the dark 
Skipping through the dark 
Like stones
Is this love?

Laid back under the stars 
Your head on my chest 
Talking s**t for hours 
The moonlight starts to fade god you’re so beautiful 

Ripples from our hearts 
Ripples from our hearts
they go 
Skipping through the dark 
Skipping through the dark 
Like stones
When we’re alone 
Ripples from our hearts 
Ripples from our hearts
they go 
Skipping through the dark 
Skipping through the dark 
Like stones
Is this love?

It’s Two
Just us two under the moon 
ripples colliding what view 
ripples collide under the moon 
Ripples colliding 

Ripples from our hearts 
Ripples from our hearts
they go 
Skipping through the dark 
Skipping through the dark 
Like stones
When we’re alone 
Ripples from our hearts 
Ripples from our hearts
they go 
Skipping through the dark 
Skipping through the dark 
Like stones
Is this love?

Ripples from our hearts 
Ripples from our hearts
they go 
Skipping through the dark 
Skipping through the dark 
Like stones
When we’re alone 
Ripples from our hearts 
Ripples from our hearts
they go 
Skipping through the dark 
Skipping through the dark 
Like stones
Is this love?

The night draws to a close 
The Ripples on the lake are all gone now
The moonlight while you sleep you’re still beautiful

Had some fun with this one and added a few tracks that wouldn't normally get play but it turned out pretty well.  Things got weird for April Fool's Day and I'm looking forward to acting a fool with all of you again real soon.
