Leeward Side is the first single of Josh Pykes fourth studio album The Beginning and the End of Everything.
When asked what the song was about in an interview for http://www.everguide.com.au Josh replied:
“‘Leeward Side’ is again a personal song. I know what it’s about for me, but more generally t...
[Verse 1]
And I have bound myself to your bearings
My love is a nesting bird, lodged in the breast of her
Lace up your boots tied to the jagged line
Of a million different lives, under the leeward side
[Chorus]
'Cause I wanna be someone
Worthy of your conversation
The madness in the moonless night
So shake off your leeward side
[Verse 2]
And everything that I did or did not do
In the miniature of my life has a lineage back to you
And some will sit on their hands to spite their feet
But one day I know I'll see you dancing away from me
[Chorus]
'Cause I wanna be someone
Worthy of your conversation
The madness in the moonless night
So shake off your leeward side
We all wanna be someone
In the miniature of your life
The madness in the wounded sky
So shake off your salvation
[Bridge]
And you want more, you will want more
You will want more than I can offer you away from my shore
Down to my skin and to my bones, down to my very core
All you need is one I will not follow
[Verse 3]
And one day you will unfold (Ooh)
And fall into the untold (Ooh)
And one day you long to be (Ooh)
Dancing away from me (Ooh)
But under the hollow skies
Past where the sails divide (Ooh)
And until the day I die (Ooh)
I'll be your leeward side (Ooh)
[Outro]
(Ooh) na, na-na, na, na (Ooh)
Na, na-na, na, na (Ooh)
Na, na, na-na, na, na (Ooh)
Leeward Side was produced by Josh Pyke & John Castle.
Josh Pyke released Leeward Side on Fri Jul 05 2013.
