about

This super-fresh feelgood little number was spawned from a chain of discussions with my good friends Ralph Johnstone and Matt Rodd. It’s a rolling work in progress. a song about freedom and celebration, and about all the 'valuable positives' we can take from this momentous shared experience of lockdowns and loneliness. We remain hopeful that our sacrifices as a community can stand as a lasting lesson to us all, about what's possible when you place the needs of the many over those of the few and always look forward to celebrating the victories, however small they might be.

Our love and thoughts go out to those in need across all borders and waters.

lyrics

ROLLING ON THE TIDE
Lyrics by Tom Williams and Ralph Johnstone

Feel I’m bursting at the seams
To get back out and catch my dreams
Throw me a single golden ray of hope

Seize the gauntlet, chase the sun
Let’s play together everyone
We should cherish all the good that we have done

Now take your time and reimagine
Where we could wind up if all goes well
Reflect in awe at ourselves in the future
How we helped each other through this wretched spell

And let’s go, sky high with elation
Stay one for all while we ride
As it should be. living with a human connection
Days are endless, nights are long
We’ve got to be strong
Rolling on the tide
Hey, hey, hey.

Collaborate, let’s activate
Refuse to bow to others’ hate
Please give us some friggin’ leaders who truly care

We know we’ve learned to look again
And lift our hearts to others’ pain
To touch the Earth ‘neath Mother Nature’s glare

Now take your time and reimagine
Where we could wind up if all goes well
Reflect in awe at ourselves in the future
If we help each other, only time will tell

So let’s go, sky high with elation
Stay all for one while we ride
As it should be. living with a human connection
This enemy has made us one
A better new wave is set to come . .
Rolling on the tide
Hey, hey, hey.

Unlock the children. Set them free
Reunite with loving family
Let’s excavate the chasms of our past

A new configuration looms
No opportunity’s too soon
Come on we’ll make these vital moments last

Now let’s go, sky high with elation
Stay one for all while we ride
As it should be. living with a human connection
Days are endless, nights are long, we’ve got to be strong

And let’s go, sky high with elation
Stand all for one while we ride
As it should be better than we ever remember
Don’t bite the apple, spare the cost
Don’t ever count yourself as lost..

Rolling on the tide
Hey, hey, hey.
Rolling on the tide
Hey, hey, hey.

Equity, empathy, humanity
That’s all you really need right there
