Story Behind The Song

Walking around one day and random sights would evoke childhood memories of when I didn't have the emotional baggage of an adult.

Song Description

Pensive contemplative song about innocence lost

Lyrics

Triggers

Here comes that ache again
Sea was calm
Then a tidal wave
Came all of a sudden

Funny how life pulls a trigger
That puts you in a place
Funny how life pulls a trigger
Yeah... Yeah...

Here comes mother doubt again
She's fast and strong
Like a hurricane
I'm running for cover

Funny how life pulls a trigger
That turns you inside out
Funny how life pulls a trigger
You see what you're about

I'm reaching out
To the sun
I'm trying to avoid the stormy weather
Reaching in for that little boy

I'm reaching out
To the sun
Cause I am trying to avoid
The stormy weather
Reaching in for that little boy

Who wants to dance with you
He wants to sing with you
Play with you
Oh there's a rainbow

He wants to hide with you
He wants to seek with you
Run with you
Oh where's the sun

Here come the clouds again
Won't let my blue skies turn to grey

Funny how life pulls a trigger
That puts you in a place
Funny how life pulls a trigger
That puts you face to face

I'm reaching out
To the sun
I'm trying to avoid the stormy weather
Reaching in for that little boy

Closing in
Rising high
Cause I am trying to avoid
The nasty weather
Reaching in for that little boy
Mama's pride and joy
I'm reaching for
That little boy....

...who's immune to the triggers

I'm reaching out to the sun
I'm reaching out to the sun

Funny how life pulls a trigger
Funny how life pulls a trigger
