about

This song was recorded at Mirror Sound Studio in Shoreline, WA. by engineer Ken Fordyce. When Ken isn’t behind the controls, he sometimes plays guitar with the group CRIME SCENE who recorded their entire first CD entitled, “1ST OFFENSE” in his studio back in 2004-2005. This is one of only two songs that I wrote that I had someone else sing. I was quite capable of singing it, but Mark, who is actually the other main lead singer of this group, didn’t have enough songs on the album, so I gave him this one, which was really right up his alley since he’s a great country singer.
The group consisted of Wayde Brown (me) on guitar, vocals, and percussion; Nick Wilcox on bass, vocals, and keyboards; Mark Hasbrook on acoustic guitar and vocals; Jay Munger on lead guitar and vocals; and Paul Kollman on drums and vocals.
This is the 29th song I wrote, so it was during my songwriting infancy. I was listening to a lot of rockabilly songs, and really getting into Buddy Holly and Phil Phillips. So this song was born from those styles. Part of the lyrics came from a poem I had.

Recorded at Mirror Sound Studio in Shoreline, WA.

lyrics

I Wanna Squeeze You, Hug You, Kiss You, And Love You.
My Love For You Has Always, Always Been True,
For I Found A Love That’s Real,
So Don’t Tell Me How I Feel.
I Wanna Squeeze You, Hug You, Kiss You, And Love You.

Even Though I Don’t Want Anything From You,
I’m So Confused, I Don’t Know What To Do.
I’m Gonna Lie In My Bed And Cry
'Til I Know The Reasons Why.
I Wanna Squeeze You, Hug You, Kiss You, And Love You.

I Want You Night And Day. I Love You Anyway. Just To See You Smile
Makes My Life Seem Worth While.
I Want You So Bad And It Makes Me Wish I Had Loved You
When I Had The Chance.

I Wanna Walk On Down And Talk With That Man.
He Stole My Girl And Took Her By The Hand.
He Said, "I Want You For My Own
'Cause Your Husband’s Never Home."
I’m Gonna Sit Right Down And Cry Over You.

I Want You Night And Day. I Love You Anyway. Just To See Your Smile
Makes My Life Seem Worth While.
I Want You So Bad And It Makes Me Wish I Had Loved You
When I Had The Chance.

I'm Gonna Squeeze You, Hug You, Kiss You, And Love You.
My Love For You Will Never, Ever Be True,
'Cause I Found A Love That’s Real
So Don’t Tell Me How I Feel.
I Wanna Squeeze You, Hug You, Kiss You, And Love You
I’m Gonna Squeeze You, Hug You, Kiss You, And Love You
I’m Gonna Squeeze You (Gonna Squeeze You)
Gonna Hug You (I'm Gonna Hug You)
Gonna Kiss You And Love You.

I am a musician, singer, and songwriter doing this part-time but have been doing it all my life. I started singing before I could talk at the age of one, and wrote my first real song at 15 years of age. (If you count avant-garde as a song, then the age would be 7.) I currently own my own recording studio; and I write, perform, and record my own music (and other's from time to time.) I am Santairs. ... more
