A few years ago I read an article that explored the possibility that water holds memories. I really liked the idea of this and the fact that water has the ability to exist in a liquid, gas, and solid form. Even when it seems as though it disappears, it is just in a phase of transition, with each transition new memories are formed and old ones remain imprinted. It changes and evolves but it still returns.
With this in mind and following suit, on the idea of water and memory, from my dear friends, 
I started writing this song about 2 years ago. It only had one verse until I worked on it some more a few months ago. Every time I practice it, it makes me think of my beautiful friend 
Down By The Waves
Down by the waves,
Is where I see her
oh yeah, down by the waves
Into the sea
Is where I feel oh
Where I feel so free
Every drop of water holds
A memory so dear
Down by the waves
Pebbles roll, around the shore
Roll a little bit more
The tide comes in
And it goes back out
And I will be down by the sea
Every drop of water holds
A memory so dear
Down by the waves
See the seaweed swish and sway
I wouldn't have it any other way
Oh yeah,
Down by the waves
Down by the waves,
Is where I see her
oh yeah, down by the waves
~ONE LOVE~
