about

This is Neil's 8th single, which he wrote back in 1995 and was a set opener for his old college band 'Dreamworld'. This high tempo stomper is one of Neil's most catchy, upbeat songs and features a melodic punk rock sound.

lyrics

Verse 1
I’ve been talkin’ about the rain for so many years I know
But I’ll be walkin’ to you, coming through that same old door
But you never understood, exactly how I feel
When I’d be walkin’ to you, coming in and off the street
Bridge 1
I’m sayin’ it straight up so you completely know what’s on my mind
I’ll keep on chasin’ all the dreams you’ve left behind
Verse 1
I’ve been trying to be sane for so many years I know
But I can’t fight this feelin’ to just play some rock’n’roll
But you always doubted me, for which I can’t believe
So when you hear this song we know on who the laughs’ll be
Bridge 2
Do whatever turns you on cos you don’t wanna grow old
Sayin’ you could have done the things that legends would have told, yeah
Guitar solo
Bridge 3
I’m sayin’ it straight up so you completely know what’s on my mind
I’ll keep on chasin’ all the dreams you’ve left behind
Verse 3
I’ve been tryin’ to find a way, for so many years I know
But I’ll be lookin’ out for you all through that same old door
Be whatever you can be, cos the truth is plain to see
That I’ll be chasin’ all the dreams that you have left behind
