	Story Behind the Song For a friend of Colin's who helped him through a tough time in his life. Colin wrote the verse in his Den when Chris came over and helped write the second half of the melody. Many options were jammed out for a chorus, and the one that stuck was created after about an hour. We weren't sure if the chorus was the right one until Tracey sealed the deal with her uncanny novice champion ability on drums (This recording was only her third time playing drums ever in her life!!). We recorded this entire song in Colin's basement and arranged the wav files with Cakewalk, where we could layer the separate parts. We recorded the rhythm guitar and drums on our first take. Vocals were added after. Tracey was finished her vocals after one day of recording, because she had to wait for Colin to put the lead vocals on. Colin added his lead guitar, and various other tweaks and things during the week that followed. Chris added his bass and backing vocals las Lyrics Today Mates It was a long time ago that I wrote a song for you The melody was right the lyrics were true I sought out to find all the ways that I could breath Would we get to hold hands?
