The single from the debut EP, ‘Bailey Barely Knew Me’, was released on April 21, 2020. The ringing track describes the obsessive longing for a long lost childhood love.
[Verse 1]
Oh I
I fell hard once before
When I was 17
I kissed on her so sweet and solemnly
We’d go back to her house
And make out on her couch
But with autumn leaves
Was left lonely, so lonely
[Chorus]
With my head of a pelican
I want to let you in
Gobble you up
Just gobble you up
So sweet to the touch
Call on my love and I’ll
Bottle you up
Bottle you up
You up
[Verse 2]
You left some books at my house that I’ll never read
And I got me a sweater that I haven’t seen
And if ever you find it I hope you’ll think of me
Yeah and I found me a lover who’s just as cute
It’s not hard to say when she looks like you
And I wish not to care but a part of me hopes you’re well… well
[Chorus]
With my head of a pelican
I just want to let you in
Gobble you up
Just gobble you up
So sweet to the touch
Call on my love and I’ll
Bottle you up
Bottle you up
You up
