[Verse 1]
You call me crying, the middle of the night
I'm on my knees, you've got me praying for a sign
It's all wrong, she's looking for a fight
Just say my name and I'll come running
[Pre-Chorus]
Don't get me wrong, I hear your reasons
You get along over the weekends
But I've got it bad, yeah, I'm not sleeping
And every time I hear her name, my heart is breaking
[Chorus]
Pick it up, baby, if I'm moving too slow
I got the seat back, windows up, just say it, I'm yours
Now, every word is heavy, tell me what you want to know
You're my shotgun lover and I want it all
[Verse 2]
Every time we talk all night
You've only got one foot in the river, baby, why?
If only I could read your mind
You've got your finger on the trigger, baby
Give in to me
[Pre-Chorus]
I hear your reasons
You get along over the weekends
But I've got it bad, yeah, I'm not sleeping
And every time I hear her name, my heart is breaking
[Chorus]
Pick it up, baby, if I'm moving too slow
I got the seat back, windows up, just say it, I'm yours
Now, every word is heavy, tell me what you want to know
You're my shotgun lover and I want it all
[Post-Chorus]
Starry-eyed
I was young and undone
But I could have died
With you there in the sun
[Chorus]
Pick it up, baby, if I'm moving too slow
Now, every word is heavy, tell me what you want to know
I'm a shotgun lover and and I want it all
[Post-Chorus]
Starry-eyed
I was young and undone
But I could have died
With you there in the sun
[Outro]
You're my shotgun lover and I want it all
SGL was produced by Brad Hale.
We had the choruses to it for probably about a year and I was just not able to finish any other part of it. Then, just one day working on it, just finished it. It just happened.
It felt like a good bridge from our last album to what’s coming, it felt like a good in between.
