Lake George Lyrics
[Verse 1: Ashe, Ashe & FINNEAS]
I'm licking my wounds
Blowing smoke on the roof
The thought of you anywhere makes me cry
Sea salt in the cut
It heals, but it sucks
Times change, and people get left behind
[Pre-Chorus: Ashe & FINNEAS]
If you don't mind forgetting this call
That'd be nice if you tried forgetting me too
[Chorus: Ashe & FINNEAS]
I'd be just about anyone else tonight
Who's not loving you
Who's not loving you
I'd take just about anyone home tonight
To stop loving you
To stop loving you
[Verse 2: FINNEAS, Ashe & FINNEAS]
Boathouse on the shore
On stilts, nothing more
The thought of you selling it to get by
Seasick in the wake
Ashes in the lake
Am I gonna think about you 'til I die?
[Pre-Chorus: Ashe & FINNEAS]
If you don't mind forgetting this place
Be so kind if you tried forgetting me too
[Chorus: Ashe & FINNEAS]
I'd be just about anyone else tonight
Who's not loving you
Who's not loving you
I'd take just about anyone home tonight
To stop loving you
To stop loving you
[Bridge: Ashe & FINNEAS]
I've seen the place you were born
The look on your face in the morning
Before you're awake, you would keep me warm
[Chorus: Ashe & FINNEAS]
I'd be just about anyone else tonight
Who's not loving you
Who's not loving you
I'd take just about anything to help tonight
To stop loving you
To stop loving you

What did The Favors, FINNEAS & Ashe say about "Lake George"?
It has a personal backstory. We went on a family road trip, and we stayed at the house in Lake George where my father had spent all time as a kid. My dad scattered his mother’s ashes there. It was old, and there was no electricity, but it was beautiful. The owner eventually sold it. So, I’m superimp...
What was the writing process like for "Lake George"?
I was staying with FINNEAS and his girlfriend, Claudia [Sulewski], at the time, and they have a piano in an isolated room where I wouldn’t wake them up. So, I started kinda clunking out this idea, and it was [the beginnings of] “Lake George”.
When [FINNEAS] woke up, I was like, “I got something to...
What was the inspiration behind "Lake George"?
I was on a walk in the morning and I was listening to “Old Friends” by Simon & Garfunkel, and I was so inspired by it.

Why did The Favors decide to name this song "Lake George"?
We hadn’t decided it was a song called “Lake George” yet, but [Ashe] had written these very East Coast, lakeshore, Cape Cod, sort of vintage, strange, Super 8 footage. Like, that was what I was seeing in my head. I had this childhood tale that I’d been told my entire life. My dad is from Connecticut...
What was the recording process like for "Lake George"?
What I thought was really cool about the way that FINNEAS and Aron Forbes were mixing this record is that [they] were mixing it in a way where we both could be taking the lead.
Aron’s a really good mixer, and we did it all in Logic. Aron was like, “My goal is to carve enough space for both voices t...
