The new single off my album is called Don't Be Lost At Sea.  Not being much of a "sea person", I'm not sure where it came from, apart from being a good metaphor for not getting sidetracked or distracted by the waves that push you off course from the life you want to live.

It's the third single I'm producing from my album Tin Can World.  It's done with a groovy bossa nova rhythm for the verses, but it then rocks out more in the choruses, with some big drums and guitars.  So it's meant to be soothing but it'll get your blood flowing as well.  I love bringing in unexpected changes in songs that take the listener by surprise.  

Here are the lyrics:

Don’t be lost at sea 
No matter how adrift you are 
When your destination’s far 
It’s out of sight 
Day or night 

Though you’d like to scream           
When your Am mates have all bailed out 
There’s no need to shout 
You can find a dream 
By the ocean stream 

Look and you will find 
Sights to ease your mind 
Blue and yellow rays 
Shimmer in the haze 
Whatever’s on its way 
Just feel the ocean sway 
Watch a shooting star 
Vanish from afar 

Don’t be lost at sea 
No matter how afraid you are 
Though the water’s deep 
There’s a sail to trim 
And you can learn to swim 

When the wind gets high 
And a perfect storm’s about 
It’s only passing by 
So lose the doubt 
And wait it out 

Wait and you will be 
Sitting here with me 
Somewhere on a beach 
No more out of reach 
It always comes around 
You’re lost and then you’re found 
Though you’ve gone so far 
Home is where you are 

Don’t be lost at sea 
No matter how alone you are 
Find some company 
Beyond the land 
At your command 
Let yourself be free 
Wherever you may roam 
It always leads you home 
Just wait and see 
Eventually
