In a detour from the romantic relationships, “parent song” serves as an ode to the duo’s respective set of parents. Chelsea previously mentions heeding her mother’s advice in the EP’s opening track “this is how you fall in love,” which shows the adoration and mutual respect they have, despite not al...
[Intro: Chelsea Cutler]
I just feel like that was really fun
Mmm-da-da-da
Oh, my love, side to side
Mmm-da-da-da-da
Mmm-da-da-da-da
Mmm-da-da-da-da
Mmm-da-da-da-da
[Verse 1: Chelsea Cutler]
I might look a bit older now
But I'm still the same kid I've always been
Changed the colour of my hair
But I still need you like I always did
My friends just finished college
And they're moving to the city where I live (Mmm, so)
So you might have to see me less
But it's nice to have somebody to miss
[Pre-Chorus: Jeremy Zucker]
I'm so looking forward to vacation
Let's make up for everything I've missed
[Chorus: Jeremy Zucker]
Ooh, I'm so sorry for the things I do
I hope it doesn't hurt your heart, it's true
Go rest your mind 'cause I still need you too
[Verse 2: Chelsea Cutler]
You love thosе old photographs
That I swear you've shown me a thousand timеs
And usually, I fake a laugh
While you're trying your hardest not to cry
We'll go walk the dogs at Winslow Park
'Cause Westport's perfect in the spring
And I'll swallow my pride and try
To tell you just how hard it's really been
[Chorus: Jeremy Zucker & Chelsea Cutler, Jeremy Zucker]
Ooh, I'm so sorry for the things I do
I hope it doesn't hurt your heart, it's true
Go rest your mind 'cause I still need you too
Hey, there's nowhere else I'd rather spend my day
I love you, I know sometimes I don't say
'Cause I know everything will be okay
Be okay
[Bridge: Jeremy Zucker & Chelsea Cutler]
You keep calling just to say you miss me
Never know what I'm supposed to say
I'm so sick and tired of the city
I need an excuse to get away
Can't believe it's already September
Summer wasn't easy to enjoy
Don't think I can make it to November
I just really need to hear your voice
[Chorus: Chelsea Cutler, Jeremy Zucker & Chelsea Cutler]
Ooh, I'm so sorry for the things I do
I hope it doesn't hurt your heart, it's true
Go rest your mind, 'cause I still need you too
I still need you too
Hey, there's nowhere else I'd rather spend my day
I love you, I know sometimes I don't say
'Cause I know everything will be okay
Be okay

Jeremy Zucker & Chelsea Cutler released parent song on Fri Feb 05 2021.
This song is really just about the ways that our relationships with our parents change. I know the last two or three years for me, being fortunate enough to start a career early and gain a little bit more independence early on has created a really interesting shift in the dynamic of my own relations...
You’re an adult, and a lot of times your parents don’t really see you as an adult. You’re struggling to express how much it doesn’t mean that you love your parents any less, but that you don’t want to spend every second with them.
