“Quarterback” was the first release of three additional songs appearing in Wallows' Remote (Deluxe) EP, released on February 19, 2021. The track features drummer Cole Preston as the vocalist, exciting fans as Preston had been the main voice only once before in “With a Little Help From My Friends.”
[Verse 1: Cole Preston]
I'm anxious, pacin'
Thoughts are racin'
Is this over?
Why won't you call my number?
[Pre-Chorus: Cole Preston]
You said, "I'll be alright"
I knew by the look in your eyes
But any time you want, you know I'll be the one
Do you feel the same or was it just for fun?
[Chorus: Cole Preston]
Because summer's gone
I'm alone wishin' for your call, startin' to freak
I'm not sure if he's comin' over for the night
Quarterback's fine
Summer's gone
I'm alone wishin' for your call, startin' to freak
I'm not sure if he's comin' over for the night
Quarterback's fine
[Verse 2: Cole Preston]
Spotlight's burned out
I'm left with my doubts
Yeah, we're done, but what for?
I don't play for a team sport
[Pre-Chorus: Cole Preston]
You said, "I'll be alright"
I knew by the look in your eyes
But any time you want, you know I'll be the one
Racin' to your door, even against the odds
But now
[Chorus: Cole Preston]
(But now)
Summer's gone
I'm alone wishin' for your call, startin' to freak
I'm not sure if he's comin' over for the night
Quarterback's fine
Summer's gone
I'm alone wishin' for your call, startin' to freak
I'm not sure if he's comin' over for the night
Quarterback's fine
