about

“Im really not much of a fall, winter guy. The colder, darker days bring my mood down, and it always seems to be around this time in late October when I need to remind myself what I’m working for. That’s what “Town By The Sea” is. It’s this reminder that for all the work you do there’s a light at the end of the tunnel. It keeps me focused on the important things; friends, family, and a place free from the stresses and worry of daily life. All those things exist so purely in this little town by the sea that I visit every summer and that’s where the song comes from.”

lyrics

Wake up to waves at 10AM
I hear them crashing out in back
The smell of salt is still in her hair
And sand is on the bed
Last night we played out on the beach
Until the sun set in the sea
With all our family
But by September it feels like all a dream
The way it touches me and everything
Dancing through the streets in all our reverie
I still smell those sheets
Left my heart asleep

In the town by the sea
Back in August
Where it feels like we're fifteen
Though we're grown up
Cause we found love that can last
One day I'm never never gonna leave
The town by the sea

We go to bed at 4AM
It's never dull with my best friends
We know that work is round the bend
And so we'll cheers to all our plans
Of one day laying on this beach
Some day we'll never have to leave
With all our family
But by September it feels like all a dream
Cause we've been running for our lives and everything
Put love on pause while we chase bigger dreams
But I still smell those sheets
I just want to be

In the town by the sea back in August
Where it feels like we're fifteen though we're grown up
Cause we found love that can last
One day I'm never never gonna leave
The town by the sea

But if tonight you feel alone
Just call me on the phone
I'll talk away your crying eyes
Till the waves wash them out when we're back next summer time
Oh
In the town by the sea
Back in August
Where she said she loved me
Was it honest
Is this all gonna last
Take my hand and we
Cause we don't ever have to leave
The town by the sea
Oh baby
Oh it's like we're fifteen
And she just said she loves me just said she loved me
In the town by the sea
