about

At the end of making this album I was beginning to lose interest in my life as it had been going. I needed a change yet felt stuck and didn’t know what to do. Then on a trip to Mexico for a close friends wedding I had a chance encounter with the photographer. We fell in love very quickly and I was catapulted me into a whirlwind relationship. She was from Argentina, I was in NY and over the next few months we met up in different parts of the world when we could. And as quickly as the fire lit up it was put out. The song calls for that Epic day to return, that period of excitement that broke the mundane and took over like a tidal wave. The lyric was written mostly in my head during a surfing session shortly after the breakup.

lyrics

Epic Day
-Lyrics by John Zay
-Music by Zay & Tactical

Taken all the way into your life today
Leading paths astray to where we fall in place
I know you can’t be found
But I don’t to leave you now
You say, you say the word
And I’ll go under your spell

Looking for the epic day
A tidal wave takes you and me away
We can fall in love all over again

Waiting for a sign that keeps me with you today
Living for adventure seems like the only way
I wasn’t built for hanging around
It’s time for me to leave this town
Just say, just say the word
And we’ll disappear right now

Looking for the epic day
A tidal wave takes you and me away
We can fall in love all over again

I’m trying so hard to embrace the storm
It’s through the eye that we are born
If we want to build a life of trust
Surrender is a must

Looking for the epic day
A tidal wave takes you and me away
We can fall in love all over again
Looking for the epic day
A tidal wave takes you and me away
We can fall in love all over again
