Moon Tide
Inspired by a late night moonlit walk on a remote Cape Cod beach:
https://youtu.be/9MC3pmc2EwM?si=wQipE0UJ1TSagPkx
Drawn by the moon
Pulled by the light
A spirit on the beach
Washed in on the tide
Let’s hurry down the waves are waiting
To wash our footprints away
Walk with you on the shore
They’ll break forever more
Hurry now the moment waits
To soon be swept away
Love plays a windy chord
One that can’t be ignored
Spirit in the seasons sign
Spirit on the waves
Spirit in a wet embrace
Swimming in the warm moon tide
Hurry now the moon tide waits
To bring us close together
Now that our hearts align
Pulled by the bright moon shine
Underneath heaven’s bridge
I’ll race you to the shore
Dive into the night
Drift on the full moon tide
Break
Drawn by the moon
Pulled to the light
A spirit on the beach
Washed in on the tide
Spirit in the seasons sign
Spirit on the waves
Spirit in a wet embrace
Swimming in the warm moon tide

Love the lead on the intro.
Great rhythm as you get into the verses.
I think this one is more about mood than story, and nothing wrong with that! Does it well.
And a great outro too!

@bhengen glad you enjoyed it Bill and thank you for becoming a subscriber to my channel.
Hey thanks ya’ll for giving it a listen. This is one my personal favorites...takes me back to that night on the beach with my GF. As Bill mentioned, I was trying to achieve a retro 60’s Surf sound with this song. As you may know the Surf genre came out of the California beach scene from back then. It’s an instrumental only genre with reverb drenched guitars and whamy bars. The guy that produced this is a freakin multi instrumental genius and when I said “spooky cool Surf guitar sound”, he knew exactly what I was talking about.
Here's an example of surf music, these guys had the Moon Tide name first but of course my song is completely different, ....thanks again:
