(Whistle) 
A little sticky and sweet 
Our bodies pressed together in this shaded heat 
A little sticky and sweet 
Swaying in the hammock on a tropical beach 
(Whistle) 

Last bite of a watermelon slice 
A seed slips off my lips like a tiny starship 
It’s 5 year mission to boldly go where no one has gone 
Before 

A seaside lullaby as we cocoon together 
Isn’t it beautiful weather 
Whether we’re here or whether we’re there 
As long as we’re together we don’t have a care (Ooh oh oh, oh oh oh) 
(Whistle) (Ooh oh oh, oh oh oh) (Whistle) 

Butterflies in the making there’s no mistaking 
It’s easy to go along, it’s easy to get along 
When you’re feeling the love (When you're feeling the love) 
When you’re feeling the love (Oh yea) 

A seaside lullaby as we cocoon together 
Isn’t it beautiful weather 
Whether we’re here or whether we’re there 
As long as we’re together we don’t have a care

Cold rain may fall 
Skies turn cloudy grey 
We’ll still recall 
The magic of this day 

A seaside lullaby as we cocoon together 
Isn’t it beautiful weather 
Whether we’re here or whether we’re there 
As long as we’re together we don’t have a care 

Slight salty tang in the air 
Fresh picked sweet gardenias in your tousled hair 
Swinging under palm trees (Ooh oh oh) (Oh oh oh)
(Ooh oh oh) (Oh oh oh) 

A seaside lullaby as we cocoon together 
Isn’t it beautiful weather 
Whether we’re here or whether we’re there 
As long as we’re together we don’t have a care (Oh yea) (Oh oh oh) 

A seaside lullaby as we cocoon together (Ooh oh oh) (Oh oh oh) 
Isn’t it beautiful weather (Oh oh oh) 
Whether we’re here or whether we’re there (Ooh oh oh) (Oh oh oh) 
As long as we’re together we don’t have a care 
(Ooh oh oh) (Whistle) 
(Ooh oh oh) (Oh oh oh) (Oh oh oh) 
(Whistle) (Oh oh oh) (Whistle)

PRESS

“Sticky and Sweet,” a whimsically upbeat album opener is the perfect song to bring us into this post-pandemic spring. It’s a loving song of new beginnings with its gentle whistling intro, Kole’s baritone ukulele, finger-picked guitars and Raveis’ soothing vocals & playful harmonies. It inspires feelings of vacationing on tropical beaches as you lay out in the sun with a cool drink while a soft breeze blows over you. - VENTS MAGAZINE
