The fourth track in Sondre Lerche’s fifth studio album, “If Only” has lyrics describing an euphoric couple on the verge of moving to “live on the shores” while “expecting to fly”.
It’s probably about Lerche himself, as he left his small hometown of Bergen, Norway in 2005, alongside then girlfriend...
My baby's building a sand castle
Someday we're gonna live on the shores
But nowadays we just hold our breath
Until the meeting next Monday and it's going through the roof
We're blowing through the roof
If only you guys could see us
Me and my baby we bicker but
I know the talented devil inside
And so we bond over raisin toes
Two absent minds
Who'll paint the sky
Two absent minds
Expecting to fly
My baby does tend to contradict
It's only natural that it's
Going through the roof
We're blowing through the roof
If only you guys could see that
I'm giving you the proof
I'm telling you the truth
They were gonna call tomorrow
Two absent minds
Expecting to fly
My baby knows how the world goes round
We'll jump the rails and abandon this town
Since have to blush when imagining
How big it's gonna be really really
Going through the roof
We're going through the roof
If only the world we followed
I'm giving you the proof
What do I have to do
To make sure you are believers
If only you guys could see us now
