A snappy love song.

Written by John Stearle, Greg Rudes and Mike Dooley. Produced by Mike Dooley and JC Burt. Recorded at JCB Studios, Manor, Texas.

I collaborated on this song with a friend who was writing a musical. We were talking about writing music one night and I mentioned I had music with no lyrics and he said he had lyrics with no music. We thought we might get together and see if anything matched. John played a recording of the original version of this song and said he didn't like it as it was. I took it home and reworked it. I sped up the tempo and changed a few of the words and phrases. Then in the studio, we added the additional orchestration to beef up the sound.
OCEAN TIDE

Girl I’ve been lonely for so long
I’m like a thirsty man in the desert
But I could survive on just one
Just one, drop of your love.

So give me one drop of your love
It hits me like the ocean tide
But one drop would tide me
Over my lover so I will survive.

Girl there’s been a change in the weather
It’s like I’m drowning in an ocean storm
But I could survive with just one
Just one breath of your love

So give me one breath of your love
It hits me like the ocean tide
But one breath would tide me
Over my lover so I will survive.

BRIDGE
My heart begins to pound
Just from the thought of your body against me
I need you in my arms
So girl don’t keep me waiting for a moment longer

SOLO

REPEAT VERSE 1

CHORUS 1 & 2

//Give me one drop of your love// give me one drop of your love
//Give me one drop of your love// one drop of your love
//Give me one drop of your love// I only need a drop to survive
//Give me one drop of your love// I only need a drop to survive
