bookmark_borderQuestions Run Deep

LYRICS
How many waves have crashed upon the beach
Is the number within reach
Like the ocean, the questions run deep

How close are you sitting to the sun
Does it feel so close that it’s got you on the run
Take the leap into questions running deep

If you can talk the talk
You can walk i on the boardwalk
Let your guitar do the talking
Feet dancing… forget the walking

How many tides have been high
Take a guess… go ahead n’ try
Memories you keep of questions running deep

Then, maybe you might know
How many tides have been low
Like the ocean, the questions run deep

I’m talking damage
Damage!
Damn age damage

I’m talking damage you could not believe
I’m talking damage you could not conceive

Gonna show her wrath
Sandy ain’t so handy
Gotta take her bath

I’m talking damage
Damage!

LYRICS
There’s a wind blowing in
Off of the sea
And, it’s blowing me
Away… hey, hey!

There’s a wind blowing in
Off of the sea
It’s talking to me
Hear it say….

There’s an escape we can take
You know… we can go below…
We can talk
Under the boardwalk

We’ll ascend… blowing up
Down by the sea
Yup, we’re blowing up
And, away… hey!

Where there’s a wind
Blowin’ in
Up against the skin
Listen to the voice within
Hey, hey! Blown away

LYRICS
What is our solution
To the saline solution
Can you see
We’ve left the sea
In a terrestrial evolution

Hear we’re filling the ocean
With our own pollution
Can you see
We’re killing the sea
In a tribal revolution

ABOUT THIS SONG
Chords — G Em

This song was inspired by a trip to the Shore with my son. It got me thinking that the human body is mostly salt water. I fail to see how we can pollute the sea.

LYRICS
When the tide rolls out
May it carry cares away
When it rolls back in
May you start new again

When the tide rolls out
May it ferry (fairy) you away
When it rolls back in
Well… may your youth return

Let the seagull fly
Across the sky
Let you imagination… occupy

Daniel Brouse writing the song Pounding the Sands of Time
Daniel Brouse writes music on the beach of the Atlantic City Shore

How long have the waves
Pounded the sand
How long has man
Pounding the sands of time
Without reason
And, little rhyme
Pounded the sands of time
As the tide is wide
The Times subside
Pounded by human
