Of all the tracks on my forth-coming album, ‘Every Stroke’ is very close to my heart. After my Granddad passed a few years ago I found myself processing my grief by writing about our shared love of the water. As a child I would stay at my Grandparents house that overlooked Titahi Bay. Granddad went swimming religiously every morning and would take me along too. lyrics I know you’re Swimming up there daily Every stroke, every stroke, ev-er-y stroke I’ll be swimming down here daily Every stroke Let’s go let’s go Around the lazy River again I’m just I’m just A water baby Working up to the fast lane Titahi Bay won’t be the same Titahi Bay won’t be the same Titahi Bay won’t be the same Even the waves whisper your name I know you’re Swimming up there daily Every stroke, every stroke, ev-er-y stroke I’ll be swimming down here daily SongtexteEvery stroke Chlorine The sweet, sweet smell of you I know, I know, I know it hurt but I’m sure he let you right through You deserve a lane all your own Up there you know my name You deserve a lane all your own Up there you know my name again I know you’re Swimming up there daily Every stroke, every stroke, ev-er-y stroke Thoughts of ya Start our poor hearts aching Every stroke Every stroke, every stroke Carol I’ll sing for you Aus Songtexte Mania
