Story Behind The Song
I wrote this after a rough time in my life - trying to get on with things and ideas without asking anyone else what they thought, letting go of things I knew to be right and then reeping the consequences. It's all OK now but it was a lesson i needed to le
Song Description
Slap guitar gives this song a funky vibe. It's a little angst ridden, I'm frustrated because I've tried to do it all my way and it doesn't work - I have to hold on to the things I know are right - be that my faith or my relationships.

Lyrics
It starts
When my life is beautiful
And when my world is wonderful
And I feel like I can fly
It?s then I fall
Sometimes
Everything is so well planned
And the worlds at my command
And i try and take a stance
But I can?t stand
Sometimes I?ve got it all worked out I?m building castles to the sky
Sometimes I?m running headlong and all I need get?s left behing
Sometimes I try to build my dreams upon the sand of what I am
It all comes crashing down cos I?m not holing on to you
Sometimes
You?ve got the nicest words to say
Words that can relly make my day
And I try and stand and figh but I just fail
Sometimes my mind is lost inside a maze that don?t mean anything
Sometimes my head is spinning faster than my universe can spin
And I can?t see, I can?t feel myself thinking what to do
I can only fall when I?m not holding on to you
(Bridge)
Then I reach out my hands
And I try to grasp the things I?m leaving behind
I know you love me
I know you want me
I love you, I want you to be mine
