ABOUT THIS 'FREE' TRACK

You can download this track for free for your listening pleasure or use it on your surf movie. We support this meditative way of life and hope you can enjoy an aloha spirit forever.

'The day is over' is a tribute song to one of the most wonderful people we have ever met: Terry Martin. Terry and his family have changed our complete outlook on things that we thought long lost. Not only did Terry's love cause them to resurface, they have been completely reinvigorated. Even though Terry is not physically among us anymore, we are proud to remember and celebrate his spirit in many of the little things we do every day.

Dear Terry, even though the day is over, we will keep you even closer at night. We know you can feel that because, we too, can still feel your love. Thank you.

lyrics

LYRICS

you call us in after seven p.m.
you wave your hand and send us on the water
the waterline is breaking apart
every last reflection of the light
the lighthouse turns 'cause everyone's lost
you can tell the moon to bring the tide

it don't make much sense at all (the day is over)
you will take it sitting down (here comes the wonderful night)
you don't place your faith in no one else (the day is gone)

I will keep you closer at night
than I ever held you near
remember when I told you,
you would always be alive to me
to me
