Track 11. Sunsets
Lyrics by Will West

It’s how the ocean meets the land.
Seeing shadows in the sand.
I’m chasing sunsets… oh my….

It’s how the ocean meets the land.
We’re building castles in the sand.
And I’m chasing sunsets…. With you by my side.
We’re chasing sunsets…. With you tonight.
Waiting watching hesitating… we climb….

Let’s take a deep breath because we’re alive….
You can’t live this life you’re givin’ fearing every day.
You know the blink of an eye can take it all way, take it all way.
I know that accidents are gonna happen on this road.
We’ve gotta live this live and don’t you let it go,
don't, don’t you let go….

It’s how the ocean meets the land.
We’re building castles in the sand.
And I’m chasing sunsets…. With you by my side.
We’re chasing sunsets….  Alright….
We’re chasing sunsets…. With you by my side… this lovely evening….

Song notes:
Inspired by my first adventure to the Redwood Trees in Northern California....
Racing to coast to try to make camp before the sun went down...
I had to pull over the car and take a few deep breaths.
It felt wrong to be trying to hurry on a vacation/adventure.... it was time to slow down...

Inspired by the setting sun and lovely coastal mountains.... A blink of an eye can take it all away....

We play this song with all sorts of tempo variations live.
