| Lyrics: | Sun is fadin' and the tiki bar’s swayin', at the ocean Breeze on my skin and the warmth of wind makes a potion There ain’t nothing like this palm tree scene Where sunshine and smiles are the daily routine Hanging by the water Down at the ocean Sailboats sailin and the dolphins are playin, at the ocean We ain’t too hurried to get worried ‘ bout a little commotion Where our nine to five is out of reach With the sand in our toes and the waves at our feet Livin’ life the way it should be Down at the ocean Down at the ocean We can walk on the beach Down at the ocean We can dream every dream Down at the ocean We can be free So just let down your hair And you’ll be right there Down at the ocean Solo Water splashin on the back of my neck down at the ocean Me and my baby got a drink in our hand and were coast’n It’s the place that we still know Where our love can only grow So baby let’s just go To the ocean Repeat Chorus |

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."
