1982

Story Behind The Song

The story starts in a bar called 1982 where I spent a lot of time with a previous band when we were travelling through Gainesville on tour, it's all about those wind stories and life ideals we all have, putting those into action and releasing that everything you needed was in fact what you were running away from in the first place.

Lyrics

Flash back to 2012
When I met you once
You said you'd moved back in to your mums
Became a teacher
Got married
I moved away
To live in the sun

And we will dance
All night
Because
She
Will leave with me
Leave with me

In a bar called 1982
Drinking shots and playing pool
You stayed at home
And brought a house
I crashed a car
Nearly drowned off the coast

And we will dance
All night
Because
She
Will leave with me

Leave with me

Sometimes
We've got to shake hands
With those demons
To move towards the light

And we will dance
All night
Because
She
Will leave with me

Leave with me

Remember those dancing shoes
Remember when we sang the blues
She'll
Leave with me
