A country rock pop blues song about a chance encounter, communications, and acceptance.

lyrics

She said I can see you're just a man
Trying to be whatever he can
Can't you believe I'm just a girl
Trying to see something new in the world

I'm just sitting here under the trees
Watching the tide roll in, feeling the breeze
You're just a girl that I saw on the beach one time
What are you running from, is it like me
Heading for something you think you can see
Wondering where will I be when I see you next time

Well tomorrow I know you must fly
And today I don’t even care why
Gone tomorrow and the day after that
I’ll be gazing at the ocean and waves going flat

I see the potential if both of us stay
I lost my credential, I’ll be on my way
She said wait a minute, I didn't say leave
I just want to point out … that I know why you grieve

I need you now
I need you now, yeah
I need you now
I need you now, yeah yeh

Heart-wrenching guitar solo

She said I can see you're just a man
Trying to be whatever he can
Can't you believe that I'm just a girl
Trying to see something new in the world

I'm just sitting here under the trees
Watching the tide roll in, feeling the breeze
You're just a girl that I saw on the beach one time
