about

Words & music by Tony Floyd Kenna & Valerie Bowe.

San Sabastian - this is a co write with Valerie Bowe. I met Valerie at an IMRO sponsored 'Nashville' songwriters workshop last Autumn. I played a version of 'Heart In A Box' on the evening and later we got talking and said we must write something together. Valerie sent me several sets of lyrics including a draft of 'San Sabastian', immediately I read it I could see and feel the whole story, love found and lost, I could hear the music in it. Within a few days I completed the lyrics and recorded the track. The opening song was down and setting the scene for those that would follow. The arrangement is straightforward, not much more than could be played live with a band. I kept this 'sparse' approach throughout the rest of the songs that would form disc one.

lyrics

San Sabastian

In San Sabastian,
by the sea
We Spent the Summer
You and me.
We drank Spanish wine
And ate our fill
Our hearts entwined
We had time to kill.
In San Sabastian
By the sea
We spent that Summer
You and me.

The days were endless
And the nights were long
It was like a Paradise
Where we belong
In San Sabastian
By the sea
We thought forever
You and me.
In San Sabastian
By the sea
We thought forever
You and me.

But storm clouds came
We washed ashore
With hearts apart
There was love no more.
In San Sabastian
There by the sea
We took our leave
You and me.
In San Sabastian
by the sea
We took our leave
You and me.
