about

This is a song that began on a trip to Florida. It is about the longing to escape the confines of daily routine for a little sun, surf, sand, and romance.

lyrics

SONG TO MAKE YOU MINE

I come from a place where dreams still come true
Where the sky is filled with stars
I come from a place where the moon shimmers blue
Like the tune on my blue guitar

Sandy shores...beach blanket babies
Echoes of nineteen sixty-nine
Revolving doors of winking eyes and “maybes”
Under the spell of summer wine

So I play real loud...try to draw a crowd
'Til I make that love-light shine
But the only thing that I long to sing
Is a song to make you mine

The dreams we chase of happy ever after
Fairy tales and magical mystery
The fears we face with luck and love and laughter
Cannot keep our hearts from being free

So, play real loud 'til you draw a crowd
You can make that love-light shine
But the only thing that I long to sing
Is a song to make you mine

I come from a place where dreams still come true
Where the sky is filled with stars
I come from a place where the moon shimmers blue
Like the tune on my blue guitar

If I play real loud...maybe draw a crowd
Maybe make that love-light shine
But the only thing that I long to sing
Is a song to make you mine

If I play real loud maybe draw a crowd
Maybe make that love-light shine
The only thing that I long to sing
Is a song to make you mine

The only thing that I long to sing
Is a song to make you mine
