Chasing Light

from Youth by Looking For Heather

about

Closing out the album is the epic ballad “Chasing Light”. The Drums were recorded in 2015 with Barry Haggarty, the bands original producer, Chasing Light is a British Pop style ballad that sees Jeff wrap his pensive lyrics “I’m tired of wishing time away, it’s not fair to those who live their lives embracing everyday” , around Jay’s beautiful bass work and Randy’s soaring lead hooks. The track fades away to the sound of a distant thunderstorm and a man asking for his lord “to come home tonight”. It’s both mournful and hopeful all at the same time, “lighters up in the pouring rain” describes Jeff.

lyrics

Closer than you thought it would be
Chasing a moment, trying to figure out just who to be
Living on the edge of a dream
Chase it forever, never get to find out what it means
Where did all the good times go?
Back when you would save my soul
They're blowing away
And I will be right there by you

Closer to the end tonight
Embracing a moment
Caught between the darkness and the light
Holding on the edge of dear life
Just hoping that you'll hear my prayer
And come and throw me a line

I tired of wishing time away
It's not fair to those who live their lives embracing every day
But I will be right there by you

And you want to say, that I'm never good enough
But I don't believe a word you say
And you're gonna find that leaving now
It just might be your best mistake
I believe in time
And I'm leaving today
Chasing the light

I know it's going to be one of those days
I know I'm gonna be chasing the light
