lyrics

I was little by the sea we moved to the lakes country
Where the water is still and contained
The land was stripped bare of all that grew there
Only the pine trees remain

Call me love call me sweetie
Let me ride on a wave
Of being twelve years old
Walking with my girlfriends
Down the avenue

I remember being alone with this older girl Simone
Rickie singing “Chuck e’s in Love”
She wore eyeliner and tight jeans you know what I mean
Big city here I come

Now im back here by the sea this is not the cold country
I’m a long way from home
Sometimes I hear it calling when the southerly is blowing
Theres a quiet on the streets

Call me love call me sweetie
Let me ride on a wave of being 12 years old
Walking with my girlfriends
Down the avenue

Walking with my girlfriends
Checking out the boyfriends
Down the avenue

The attention to detail in the compositions. Each title represents in itself, an overall dominance and mastery of his style of songwriting. The music displayed is of the most sincere and delicate nature, from the ground upwards. billac
