Deans’s solo album ‘Gravity’ is one that he did with his friend of 20 years Matt Parker.
‘Gravity’ is of a meloodic indie pop style, full of unique songs and rich in variety. With heartfelt melancholy lyrics and beautifully crafted songs it shows off the softer side of Dean’s powerful and emotional voice.

not muchBut it’s all that I’ve gotTake the rest of my years (Matt Parker) COME BACK AGAIN I can’t fall asleep once againI’ve got to break this downUpon my feet I’m off againAs the sun comes aroundMistaken my own reflection as another year goesJust sit and watch the world outside the window I’m not gonna break if you don’tI’m not made of steel just boneFreezing in the sun chasing my own shadowAlways on the runConversation so lowWaiting for a chance to get hold of myselfCome back againCome back again There's pages left before the endWon’t you read it outI’m to far gone to read my friendSwings in roundaboutsYou gotta learn from your mistakesDon’t let the world control youHere I go againAfter all you told meI wish I was as strong as youI wish I was as strong as youI wish I was as strong as you I’m not gonna break if you don’tI’m not made of steel just boneFreezing in the sun chasing my own shadowAlways on the runConversation so lowWaiting for a chance to get hold of myselfCome back againCome back againCome back againCome back again You can bring me back againBack to what I knowYou can bring me back againBack to what I knowYou can bring me back againIf anyone can (Matt Parker) SAVE ME FROM MYSELF I’m gonna miss you when you’re goneI’m gonna need more strength to carry onCos I don’t now me nowI always swim against the tideI never had much time for friends of

it’s more than I can takeSlow me down before I hit the wallSwimming in against the tideYou know it’s suicideWon’t you help me out throw me a line Cos it cuts my heartBreaks my soul to let it goIt’s a feeling deep insideYou will never knowAnd I'll always have faith in you And I break my back just to carry youCos no matter what you doThis lifeboat is made for twoAnd I’ll always save you If something makes you cryThe water floods your eyesI will lay you down hold you till they dryWhen we talk on the phoneI close my eyes and I’m homeIt’s a different town it’s a different worldBut I’m not alone Cos it cuts my heartBreaks my soul to let it goIt’s a feeling deep in sideThat you will never knowAnd I'll always have faith in you And I break my back just to carry youCos no matter what you doThis lifeboat is made for twoAnd I’ll always save youAnd I’ll always save youAnd I’ll always save youAnd I’ll always save you I'll keep you by my sideMy arms are open wide nowLove is all that matters to meI'll keep you by my sideMy arms are open wide nowLove is all that matters to me I'll always have faith in youAnd I break my back just to carry you (Matt Parker/Dean Barton) CUT THE WIRES You’re looking to change your life with the things you doBut everyone knows your name and knows what you’re going throughThe conversation's dry and the town is tooAnd your old friend Jack is waiting at home for you So you wear your heart upon your sleeveSo it’s there for all the world to seeWhen you wear your heart upon your sleeveFeed the fire in my soulWon’t you take me where the light glowsWon’t you take me where the lights glowWon’t you take me where the lights glow Don’t wanna let you down honey that’s the truthWhen the clouds are in your sky you know I shelter youCut the wires that hold me down and shake this heavy townYou know we’re going where the lights glow So you wear your heart upon your sleeveSo it’s there for all the world to seeWhen you wear your heart upon your sleeveFeed the fire in my soulWon’t you take me where the light glowsWon’t you take me where the lights glowWon’t you take me where the light glowsWon’t you take me where the lights glowWon’t you take me where the light glows Won’t you take me where the light glowsWon’t you take me where the lights glow (Matt Parker) GRAVITY Do you think life needs fixingThink about the time I’ve been wastingKnowing this love is everlastingShould it all break down what’s remaining No I never say what I’m thinkingBack of my mind keep on driftingRunning out of time fear of fallingBring me back to earth my soul is stalling I’ve been floating around here beforeI see the stars againAnd I’m burning in the sunThen your gravity comes alongPull me back to earthPull me back to earthPulls me back to earthPull me back to earth Do you think life needs fixingTo the fire in my heart keep on burningI don’t wanna let you down can you hear me callingPull me back to earth my soul is stalling I’ve been floating around here beforeI see the stars againAnd I’m burning in the sunThen your gravity comes along Pull me back to earthPull me back to earth Gravity attracts me tooAll the little things you doAnd I thank you for the things you sayYou saved my soul today, just like yesterday (Matt Parker/Dean Barton) BABY COME HOME Baby come homeBaby come homeWrap your arms around my skinTell me how and where you’ve beenI want you to knowI want you to knowThere’s a space within my heart where only you can go If it takes me foreverIf it takes me foreverTo put my soul back together this timeAs the ground falls below usAs the sea fills the coloursCity lights shine to tell us we’re homeIf it brings me back to youIf it brings me home to you Baby come homeBaby come homeYou know I fly ten thousand miles To make your face glowCos I’ve been awayFor to longWhen I’m gone I can’t find the words to tell you it comes out wrong If it takes me foreverIf it takes me foreverTo put my soul back together this timeAs the ground falls below usAs the sea fills the coloursCity lights shine to tell us we’re homeIf it brings me back to youIf it brings me home to youOh if it brings me back to you (Matt Parker/Dean Barton)
