I Wish I Could Say I Love You

about

Was trying to create a kind of 60s style psyche garage rocker here..The main guitar hook is a bit similar to The Animals track "It's My Life" & the "I'm well out of sight" riff was definitely influenced by The Police..Could always picture this track coming straight after "Klampenborg" on some future album i'd do from years back..I really like the sudden drama & intensity following the serenity just gone

lyrics

Your love is like a dream i knew
Your love is like a calling
I wrapped it up in all i am
to help me when i'm falling

And i'm well out of sight
but i've been to the light

I WISH I COULD SAY I LOVE YOU
JUST LET IT FLOW OUT AND TOUCH YOU
AND NOT BE AFRAID ABOUT YOU....TONIGHT

You smiled at me when i was down
I made it last a highway
I walked it through the crowd outside
but lost it on the runway...

And i'm scared of the flight
and i'm scared that you might

I WISH I COULD SAY I LOVE YOU
JUST LET IT FLOW OUT AND TOUCH YOU
AND NOT BE AFRAID ABOUT YOU....TONIGHT

Everybodies got the world in motion
Gotta try to make it to the ocean
If i ever thought we'd be i'd turn it around now
I'd turn it around now

And i'm well out of sight
but i've been to the light

I WISH I COULD SAY I LOVE YOU
JUST LET IT FLOW OUT AND TOUCH YOU
AND NOT BE AFRAID ABOUT YOU....TONIGHT

Everybodies got the world in motion
Gotta try to make it to the ocean
If i ever thought we'd be i'd turn it around now
I'd turn it around now
