Shine

about

We got to co-write with our friend, Troy Welstad in Portland in 2019. It was a fun song to write and it is about someone dreaming about an individual that has caught their attention and their dreams lead them to an evening of dancing underneath the moon and the stars together. It is daydreaming and imagination at its best! I have to tell you that it is a scary thing to collaborate with other artists but it is so good to get our of your comfort zone and try new things.

Speaking of getting out of comfort zones. We are learning how to SHINE a light on love in this season amidst the racial tension and riots. We have been reading books, listening to activists and leaders, teaching our children and learning to love better. It is scary to not have words or know how to help but if you seek to be a light and to honor and love there are ways you can shine.

We would love to hear how you are shining light during dark times and also what you think about our new song!

lyrics

Verse 1
Saw you walking down the street on Sunday
down the boulevard
You got me thinking that maybe someday
I’ll get to be where you are
Now I’m dreaming of taking drives and late nights
Cruisin’ in your car
Imagine us lying out on the green grass staring up at the stars

Pre-Chorus
Can we make this real
Where we’re face to face
Will you take my hand
And chase my clouds away

Chorus
Ooo ooo, Dancing in the moonlight
Ooo ooo, Singing in the starlight
Ooo, ooo, Dancing in the moonlight
You and me shine, you and me shine tonight

Verse 2
I’m seeing visions of our future together
Reflections in the mirror
Never knew I could be so happy
Now you’ve got me seeing clear
Don’t want to waste another moment without you
I need you by my side
Since the days my eyes fell upon you, I’ve been going wild
