In August 2025, Sarah Golding wrote to me that she really liked my
instrumental track "Those Times Are Gone",
released 3 years ago, and was interested in writing some lyrics for it.
I was immediately excited by the idea, as I'm a huge fan of Sarah's
catchy and genre-spanning voice.
However, at first, I couldn't imagine how well it would work with a
pre-produced instrumental track.

After Sarah wrote the lyrics and we exchanged the first drafts,
it was clear that it worked very well.
Since the track got a new twist, thanks to Sarah's great lyrics,
a new title was obviously needed.
Now we are delighted to present our first colab: "Affinity !"
Enjoy :)

Lyrics:

Sun on the road, late November haze
Pulled into your driveway and you met me at the gate
And we kissed without saying a word
Took it too fast
But if it was a bad idea 
It was news to us

It's gonna be, gonna be you and I forever
Said your eternal eyes
It's gotta be, gotta be magic chemistry
This affinity, affinity

You save the best for last
You find it in the last place you try 
Games get you nowhere
You might as well just dive… in
Into the water
of a phosphorescent tide 
We may grow old
But we will never die

It's gonna be, gonna be you and I forever
Said your eternal eyes
It's gotta be, gotta be magic chemistry
This affinity, this affinity

It's gonna be, gonna be you and I forever
Said your eternal eyes
It's gotta be, gotta be magic chemistry
This affinity, affinity

That time is gone, that time is gone
But we go on
