I woke up with this melody in my head. It was February 2018 and at the time I was with my girlfriend in Oslo, Norway. I started it in Norway and finished it at my parent’s house in Queensland, Australia.
I’m not a trained musician so waking up with melodies in my head is a little frustrating… I will...
I think we're at a crossroads
Like my career is this a metaphor or something?
Just how the river it flows
If you're going to jump in be committed, be trusting
You care a lot about words
But say things you didn't mean and truthfully I don't dig that
I care a lot about words
But I sit here say nothing avert my eye contact
Maybe, we both got things that we didn't ask for
I'm still glad that we gave it a go
I’m glad we didn't put it on hold
And well, did we get into something that we didn't sign up for?
I'm still glad that we gave it a go
I'm glad we didn't put it on hold
Summer dresses amongst my clothes in my cupboard
Built up out of milk crates
Memories of wind-blown days
Home-made sleeping on a bed without a bed frame
I care a lot about words and I've said a couple things
That truthfully I want to take back
You care a lot about words so I close my eyes
And kiss you to show you I didn't mean that
Maybe, we both got things that we didn't ask for
I'm still glad that we gave it a go
I’m glad we didn't put it on hold
And well, did we get into something that we didn't sign up for?
I'm still glad that we gave it a go
I'm glad we didn't put it on hold
Hold, hold, hold
It didn't go as planned, doesn't mean that it’s too good to be true
And when things go left field
Doesn't mean that it’s not right for me and you
It didn't go as planned, doesn't mean that it’s too good to be true
And when things go left field
Doesn't mean that it’s not right for me and you
Maybe, we both got things that we didn't ask for
I'm still glad that we gave it a go
I’m glad we didn't put it on hold
And well, did we get into something that we didn't sign up for?
I'm still glad that we gave it a go
I'm glad we didn't put it on hold
Maybe, we both got things that we didn't ask for
I'm still glad that we gave it a go
I’m glad we didn't put it on hold
And well, did we get into something that we didn't sign up for?
I'm still glad that we gave it a go
I'm glad we didn't put it on hold
Hold, hold, hold
Hold, hold, hold
