about
Until the pandemic, it’s just what we all did.
A drinking song for sure, this is also about busy people everywhere, the life of adventure and hectic deadlines and schedules we were all living, but that kept us moving, and happy, and so gloriously exhausted!
Our extensive research shows it’s best to listen to this track at an elevated volume, physically distanced...
...until it’s safe to dance right next to others, seeing this in person or hearing it play on the radio!
lyrics
THE NEXT BEST THING
by Graham Lindsey & Jordan Coaker
(Intro)
Always running to the next best thing
Never know what tomorrow brings
Let the chorus and choir sing
Always running to the next best thing
(Chorus)
Always running to the next best thing
Never know what tomorrow may bring
Let the chorus and choir sing
Always running to the next best thing
Pile deadlines on my plate
Another Meeting and a coffee date
Keep it coming, I feel great
(No time for slowing down)
Stuck in Ireland at the Gate
One more round of “The Weight”
Our Flight roulette ends in Stalemate
But our feet won’t hit the ground
(Chorus)
Meet for supper after eight
It’s been so long, I can’t be late
My heart is pounding, sure you can relate
For when we hit the town (Buddy just bought a round)
(Instrumental tune: “Paused”)
(Chorus)
