Miriam [D] Santos directed this video and I must say that her emotional visions [Em] of what the song should look like completely [D] fit the music.
We [Em] originally met in my hometown when we were [D] doing a photo shoot for my upcoming album Traces.
[F] [C] Not only is she a great photographer, [Em] she's a really great director.
[D] And that's when I knew we had something special, so I asked if she would make [G] my next video.

This song was originally conceived in Hollywood, California with a songwriting friend [Em] of mine, Brian West.
We took a [D] break to get a bite to eat.
And so on our way [Em] back, I decided to stand on the corner [A] of Hollywood and Vine [D] and watch and listen [F] to a whole new generation [Em] running around the streets, blasting their music [D] in their cars as they're driving around.
They took me back to a time I'd forgotten [Em] about.
Like so [D] many tears in the [Em] rain.
Will I [D] remember your name?
[F] Your [Em] heart's reach fearlessly.
[D] In the night.
We're [G] still here.

I guess at the end of the day, [D] what I was trying to say when I was writing this [Em] song was we're still here [C] doing the same thing we've always done.
[G] We work together.
We laugh together.
We cry together.
For this [Am] man who unknowingly [C] just dropped his wallet.
[G] He's about to find out [Am] that we all [Em] have more in common [G] than he ever realized.
