Buy on iTunes VideoLyricsRunning in the sand Living on the land The salty breeze was in our eyes We stood beneath the dragonflies and danced all night We polished all the chrome On our rusty little home We slept all night in parking lots We tied our hearts in double knots, so tight So free, so right Remember when We were just cherubs in our tender skin Waiting patiently for life to begin Flowing so free Blowing in the breeze The songs we sung so long ago With whiskey and an afterglow, we shined like new But there along the way Something seemed to change As weeks turned into months we knew As life caught up we slowly grew, apart And untied our hearts The summer went away and the skies went gray We slowly ran out of things to say The river turned into drought Our time was fading out Defeated and alone, we returned back home Like a bird without a wing who had never flown Surrendered to, suspended dreams Remember when You walked away in the December wind I felt the stinging on my pale skin I knew that things would never be the same again Remember when The clouds rolled in and then the sunlight dimmed And what will be, it killed what might have been Tablature

The first time I listened this song, something about it caught my ear. I've listened to the album several times through now, and I still can't get enough of this song. I really like the way the poppy upbeat verses and chorus contrast the darker and more intense bridge.
I feel the same way as Alex. On this song I've heard through more times than I can remember now and it touches my heart every time.
This song reminded me so much of a failed long-distance relationship. It's my new *getting-over-it* song.
I love the lyrics of this one, but my skills at discerning sound are still not quite up to par with the music itself. It's not standing out to me as well as Let It In did on a musical scale. This by no means is a criticism. It's just how my ability to process and understand sound is currently not working out too well with this song. If there's ever a video of it like Let It In has, let me know. That might also be playing a role.
I've recently taken to listening to your music. A lot. And by that, I mean with an almost religious level of devotion; I think the only other music I've listened to on iTunes recently was the Portal 2 Soundtrack... Recently I picked up on Cherubs; I remembered first listening to it, and couldn't believe I'd forgotten it! Currently my favourite song of yours - it was playing in my head throughout my whole exam today :D I must say, I really enjoyed listening to this song, it is pretty catchy and I love the up-tempo way of it! Keep up the great work, Josh!
Spent 3 days trying to find a decent CC track to use on my showreel and then I found this. Thanks so much for a great track. It'll be on my website soon, naturally with appropriate credit!
