i’m sure you felt me shudder
and maybe
the soft cry escape my lips
i’m sure you felt
my racing heart
i imagined your mind
when you saw the tears
in my eyes
it wasn’t you
please know that
your warm presence
kept me here
kept that moment
kept it from the lost
i wasn’t ready
but i needed to be held
i wasn’t ready
and you held me
that moment
value negated cost
and that moment
i thought id lost
it was in me
the whole time
i wasn’t the first
wont be the last
but in that moment
neither of use were

"Do It Again" the track that would ultimately open the Beach Boys final album on Capitol Records which was released on February 10th 1969 had originally been released as a single in August of 1968. The track was the first of many post-Pet Sounds era throwbacks to the early Beach Boys sound which would become continually more cliched and eventually lead the Beach Boys to the level of self-parody they would eventually succumb to in the 1980s while their closest contemporaries The Beatles nearing the end of their run in 1969 would go on to be viewed as the most influential band of all time. However, the song itself is not bad on its surface, and it opens with a futuristic sounding (for 1969) drumbeat captured by then-Beach Boys engineer Stephen Desper using tape delays on the drums performed by Dennis Wilson and John Guerin. The song has been re-recorded numerous times over the years on various Beach Boys-related projects most notably the 2011 re-recording at Capitol studios featuring the five surviving Beach Boys at the time backed instrumentally by various members of both the Brian Wilson Band and Mike Loves touring "Beach Boys" to promote the then upcoming Beach Boys 50th Anniversary reunion tour in 2012. The hammering and power drill sound at the end of the song was an excerpt from a track called "Workshop" that was to be a part of the uncompleted "SMiLE" album.

Well made! You’ve articulated the beauty of nonverbal comfort and deepened its authenticity.
Aw. This felt very poignant. Softer side to your work.
