The Chilly Dogz recorded a new album of songs on 14th February. This album is made up mainly of songs about love and is a departure for us. I have uploaded the title track to our page on Bandcamp which is already mixed. The rest will completed on 28th February and I will add them then. Meanwhile here is Ripples In The Water (click album cover to listen).
This song references a journey to Holland where we left Vlissingen at midnight on a converted fishing boat called Le Gros Minet . The skipper told me to steer towards a light that was intermittently flashing across the other side of the estuary. I saw strange ripples on the surface of the water just before we ran aground on a sandbank. The light turned out to be malfunctioning street light. So I transposed the story into a love song and this is it.
lyrics
RIPPLES IN THE WATER
RIPPLES IN THE WATER OF LOVE
RIPPLES IN THE WATER
RIPPLES IN THE WATER
RIPPLES IN THE WATER OF LOVE
IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT
LOOKING FOR A LIGHT
A LIGHT SHINING ON ANOTHER SHORE
MAKE SURE IT’S THE ONE
THE ONE YOU’RE LOOKING FOR
SHINING BRIGHT ON ANOTHER SHORE
THE ONE THAT YOU’VE BEEN LOOKING FOR
IF YOU DON’T STOP AND LOOK AROUND
IT’S OH SO VERY EASY TO RUN AGROUND
TAKE CARE AND LOOK AROUND
FOR THOSE TELL TALE WARNING SIGNS
THAT YOU GET WITH THE CHANGING TIDE
ALL THOSE TELL TALE WARNING SIGNS
SEE THEM SHIMMERING OVER THE SIDE
RIPPLES IN THE WATER
RIPPLES IN THE WATER
RIPPLES IN THE WATER OF LOVE
RIPPLES IN THE WATER
RIPPLES IN THE WATER
RIPPLES IN THE WATER OF LOVE
