Stars On The South Coast

by Kirsten Adamson

/

about

The story of a young couple and the journey of their relationship. 

“I was playing about with different rhythms on my acoustic guitar and the verse came to me first. It was whimsical and fun but I wanted the track to have depth and what started out autobiographical, grew into a fictitious love story.”

With a little twist in the middle, the song is a catchy, uplifting and lyrical trip adorned with acoustic guitars, shimmering mandolins and ukuleles.  A beautiful reminiscence style track from Kirsten showcasing her incredible crystalline vocals.

lyrics

Stars On The South Coast

I was in the front seat
You were sitting by me
I was singing Courtney
You were on the harmony

You were talking exes
I was in the present
We were making good time
Until I don’t know where it all went

We Slowed down
pulled in
moved fast
Kisses like lightening

We drove on
got lost
laughed hard
Not thinking of the cost
We slept under the stars on the south coast

We moved down to Brighton
Bought a little hideaway
Spent our days writing
singing bout the olden days

We holiday’d in Texas
Every night a new town
We took the lonesome highway
And we didn’t turn around

We Slowed down
pulled in
moved fast
kisses like lightening

We drove on
got lost
laughed hard
Without thinking of the cost
We slept under the stars on the south coast

I found out I was pregnant
And thought about what that meant
Had to get my head straight
Find new things to appreciate

You said that I was changing
You really loved the new me
Did all the rearranging
We set off for the country

One night
A fight
A slam
A tear
A beer
A car
A crash
A call

I gave birth in April
We had a little daughter
Every time I hold her
I think of how you fought for her

And how we almost lost you
Now we are a family
We holiday in Texas
You and me and Emily

We slow down
Pull in
Get caught
In thunder and lightening

We drive on
get lost
laugh hard
Not thinking of the cost
We sleep under the stars on the south coast
