[Verse 1]
We haven't talked in quite a while
It sure is good to hear your smile
Now that I've got you on the phone
Girl, you know we weren't built to be alone
No, no
[Chorus]
So, hey, old lover, won't you come on over?
Heard you're in between boyfriends from your mother
I always thought we'd end up together
Baby girl, right now, nothin' sounds better than to
Lay around with someone I don't have to play pretend with
Someone who already knows just what she's gettin'
Say you're comin' over, say the words "I'm on my way"
Hey, hey, old lover
[Verse 2]
Now all the silence on the line
Makes me think you think I'm right, yeah
Throw all your caution to the stars
Girl, you can't break a broken heart
No, no
[Chorus]
So, hey, old lover, won't you come on over?
Heard you're in between boyfriends from your mother
I always thought we'd end up together
Baby girl, right now, nothin' sounds better than to
Lay around with someone I don't have to play pretend with
Someone who already knows just what she's gettin'
Say you're comin' over, say the words "I'm on my way"
Hey, hey, old lover
[Chorus]
So, hey, old lover, won't you come on over?
Heard you're in between boyfriends from your mother
I always thought we'd end up together
Baby girl, right now, nothin' sounds better than to
Lay around with someone I don't have to play pretend with
Someone who already knows just what she's gettin'
Say you're comin' over, say the words "I'm on my way"
Hey, hey, old lover
[Outro]
Let's make some new love
Make some new love
Let's make some new love
Hey Old Lover was produced by Kip Moore.
Kip Moore released Hey Old Lover on Fri May 29 2020.
“Hey Old Lover” was one of those things where it just spontaneously fell out in a fun way. Dan Couch and I were actually writing another song, and then I started ripping around on that riff. It wasn’t like we were specifically thinking about anything in particular; those opening lines of the chorus...
