Story Behind The Song

Stayed up all night and wrote this song. Then I drove down the the beach and wrote the lyrics as the sun was coming up.

Lyrics

When you're hanging out on the other side of sane
Then the time will come and you'll be moving on
and though the battles won , you find your fighting just the same
Till the Siren sings me her new love song
When my hope is gone and all that lights my flame
Is the thought that soon you'll be coming home again
The past is dead and gone it doesn't matter whose to blame
I'm gonna wind it up, tear it down and walk the other way

If somebody knows, will anybody tell me?
"You won't find it if you try to hard"
Where do you go, can anybody tell me?
"You might find it down at Rio Del Mar"
If somebody knows, could anybody tell me?
"You don't even have to drive to far"
Where do you go, would anybody tell me?
"Just might find it down at Rio Del Mar"

Though my hands are shakin' and a little weak
Another cup of coffee, haven't had a bite to eat
With all the time I've wasted just waiting' for a train
Yeah the time will come and I'll be moving on
So when the love is lost, that something missing inside
My Emptiness is filling up with something less than pride
And if your body's aching for something else to do
You need to wrap it up, tie it down and check out something new

If somebody knows, will anybody tell me?
"You won't find it if you try to hard"
Where do you go, can anybody tell me?
"You might find it down at Rio Del Mar"
If somebody knows, could anybody tell me?
"You don't even have to drive to far"
Where do you go, would anybody tell me?
"Just might find it down at Rio Del Mar"

Down that sandy street just along the shore
I'll have a Cappuccino yes to start an early morn
In a front row seat the dolphin's 6 or maybe more
And the pelican's soon will be streaming home
When I hit the beach the sand burning on my feet
Gliding in the waves just might cool me off
Well tonight a fire, will be warming up my feet
And the thought that soon you'll be coming home
