Lyrics: Driving with the radio all the way down
Ignoring every word they sing on my speakers now
Flash back to when all we heard was Elvis and Johnny Cash
But honestly what I miss most is your hand on my back

I still feel you with me
I can hear the sound
Of your voice still ringing in my head
Like a siren
Telling me what you would have said,

We found love in the loneliest place
There was nobody around
And my hand on your waist
And if I had known then what I know today
I would have said, “you won’t be the one that got away”
Baby, we’ve got a lifetime to live
So don’t let go—our story won’t end
I’ll see you soon, yeah, I’ll see you again
Pull you in
And we’ll dance like we used to
We’ll dance like we used to

We used to have all the same favorite songs
I can sing all the words; you remember some
Flash back to the night when you said you’d never let me go
And I memorized the sound of your footsteps coming home

I still feel you with me
I can hear the sound
Of your voice still ringing in my head
Like a siren
Telling me what you would have said

Chorus

Spinning round and round
Spinning round and round
Spinning round and round

Said Dave: "I enjoy making a living making music as there is something always new to learn. If you know one instrument, you can learn another. If you know how to engineer one style, you can always learn another. My main question I ask myself when writing and making music is "what gives you goosebumps". The mechanics of songwriting and engineering can get quite technical, however at the end of the day its what makes you feel something."
