Moonlight In Her Eyes

©2014 Robert Randall Burke


All the miles and all the trials
Along this winding trail
Nothing ventured nothing gained
And nothing if you fail
If I make it to the border
Will you remember me?
Will you remember Mexico
When you look out to sea?


Thinkin' bout redemption
Thinkin' bout remorse
Thinkin' bout this old boat
And how it went off course
Thinkin' bout Coast Highway
And California skies
Thinkin' bout a pretty girl
With moonlight in her eyes.


They're dancing in Laguna
On soft Pacific sands
Singing songs of vagabonds
With guitars in their hands
I'd like to go see Rosie
And talk about old times
I can bring the Cuervo
If you will bring the limes.





All BIAB (except one cymbal crash grin ). Will post memo later. Thanks for listening.


Regards,


Bob

That was almost a Jimmy Buffet song.

I enjoyed that quite a bit.

I hope you plan to post the tracks used.

Very enjoyable, Bob - nice story details in the lyrics and very good vocals.
I also like that swirling organ in the background.

Good song! Love the lyrics and vocal. Great backtrack also, very impressed with the drums the way you did the double fill, did you use BIAB to generate the drum track?

Lovely tune Bob. Super vocal. I agree with Herb this really reminded me of a Jimmy Buffet tune. Well done

Mr. Burke... this is SUCH a fine write! I could have quoted the entire song - it is strong from start to finish.

The melody - every bit a match for the lyric. Well sung - as always.

Good songwriting? It should be posted and let it speak for itself... Robert Randall Burke - leading by example... smile

I look forward to each of your songs.

Thanks for the listen. The drums were all stock, except the snare, which was from Addictive Drums.
