Santa Monica Sunshine (Rogers).
Written as a radio friendly song that has a bit of a dig at the shadier side of the entertainment industry.

Let It Burn (Rogers).
A love song inspired by an old picture of a portrait painted in blue. It shows how inspiration can be found in the art of others.

American Dream (Ashford / Rogers)
The melody and lyrics for this song were written by keyboard player Tim Ashford during the 1980s to a chord structure written by Bud Rogers. It was originally inspired by dissidents gaining citizenship for secrets, but with worldwide immigration still a very big issue today it still serves as a reminder that things are never quite what they seem to be.
The song is dedicated to Tim.

You (Rogers)
A very simple love song that highlights the isolation people can feel after the breakdown of a relationship.

Slave To Passion (Rogers)
Originally free written during the early 1990s as a poem, Slave To Passion was adapted into a song about obsession. Although the theme is quite open and could relate to any obsession there is a strong sexual undertone that runs throughout the song.

Innocent Days (Rogers)
A song dedicated to the memory of all those crazy nights shared with friends and band mates. Everyone has that certain place in their memory; their own fire they danced around, hopefully this song reminds them of those times. And who was “the girl with the moon in her eyes”? No one knows!

Token Of Gold (Rogers)
Token Of Gold was one of the first serious songs written by Bud during the 1980s, originally just a series of simple lines written about the loss of a loved one, it grew very quickly into an emotional expression of loss through the symbolism of jewellery left behind. Sometimes the simplest things are the hardest things to say.

Whiteout (Rogers)
The song Whiteout was also free written as a poem about insomnia, it also raises questions about where we go during our dreams. It was written to express the journey through sleep as if it was like passing through a dark tunnel, but on completion it also seems to carry a strong religious undertone.

Lullaby (Rogers)
With the recurring theme of dreams that runs throughout the album it seemed kind of fitting to end with Lullaby. The song is simply that, a lullaby for a loved one.
