Chasing that sun and following his heart.
Yeah, that's what I see
When I see this bar.
Yeah, that's what I see
When I see this bar.
Some are still living the dream,
Stuck in still life it seems.
No matter where they've been,
Or where they are,
Yeah, I see 'em here

ReplyDeleteThe song is written about Ivans but, it is really about a period of time. The Hey Days of St. John when all the friends were still there and we shared each others hopes and dreams. As a main lander, I was only ever a visitor but, I will never forget the best years of our lives spent each Summer at these bars and on the Hey Now! Kenny has been a good friend for over 20 years. He is one of the most caring and genuine people you could ever meet. Although he was already a great person when we met him on his first trip to St. John, the islands transformed his soul, as it did all of us.
ReplyDeleteNow, when we visit, it is a bit different. I still catch myself looking at certain spots in town and expecting to see him sitting with a Pain Killer. I feel a bit sad that it is filled with people I don't know. The I turn the corner by the Beach Bar and Kenny jumps on my back and yells "watch do'in Brother". Time stands still and, for a few hours at least, we are back.
By the way, you have done a great job capturing the island feeling on the blog. Keep it coming Brother. I may not be there until next Summer but, I live like a Pirate every day!
Smile...You are in Paradise
Miss you Christy
Love it ❤️ Wish I were apart of that circle in so many ways!! Even though I don't know Christy, I feel her spirit & the love in her song! I had a friend this song will always relate to as well. Maybe someday I will be a new face in that place 😊

DeleteLooks lovely wow beautiful!!! Glad your living your dream... may God bless you. I hope one day i can go out thier. Funny story when i was young i tild my mom i was going ti marry Kenny chesney lol. Went to his consert he said something forgot what it was but sonething like does anyone want to come home with me i yelled yes... lol.. Then got married had two kids a girl and a boy which are now teenagers. But when we got a divorce do to bad abuse, i saw that American Idol was coming to my town so i signed up vut jokeing telling my mom if I make it i will meet Kenny Chesney and he will fall in live with me and i will marry him lol. Of course that did not happen... but hey at least i can say i did try right??? To be young and crazy... but the place looms great....
ReplyDeleteOh it me again. But in all honesty its to bad people dont leave Kenny chesney alone though. He is a normal person like all of us you know.... when he does come down im sure he goes to get away from all that crap in the first place...
