A song for long distances and hopeful hearts! ♥
squarewalker is the leading single of salv the dog’s upcoming second album, the name of which has not been released yet.
Salv wrote the song about their long-distance relationship, and its themes are powerfully present in the lyrics.
[Verse 1]
Another solitary walk 'round the square
Friends and crowds fill the spaces but you're not there
Another night spent selfishly in my covers
I can feel the cool absence, this bed's made for lovers
[Refrain]
Flat root beer float like water pouring down my throat
Am I a fool for validating my day with mindless transactions?
(Flat root beer float like water pouring down my throat
Am I a fool for validating my day with mindless transactions?)
[Chorus]
But I can pretend that you're here and it's fine, it's all good
Life's all cheer living here in your arms like I should
And pretend there's no wait, not a year, you're just herе
There's no fear, lеt your wings spread, my dear
But 'til then guess I'll walk all alone
I'll live all on my phone
(Ahh)
[Post-Chorus]
Livin' on my phone and I'm counting down the golden days
Waiting out my prime all alone so I can feel your rays
It'll all be worth it as I sleep on that first night
With you next to me and I hold you in my arms so tight
[Verse 2]
Another solitary walk 'round the campus
Memories of the weekend, that's why we began this
Another night spent with my paw and a roleplay
One more morning excused because I walked to the cafe
[Refrain]
Cars and airplanes, thousands of miles will ease my pains
Am I a strain, do I make things hard with these boarding passes?
(Cars and airplanes, thousands of miles will ease my pains
Am I a strain, do I make things hard with these boarding passes?)
[Chorus]
But I can pretend that you're here and it's fine, it's all good
Life's all cheer living here in your arms like I should
And pretend there's no wait, not a year, you're just here
There's no fear, let your wings spread, my dear
But 'til then guess I'll walk all alone
I'll live all on my phone
(Ahh)
[Post-Chorus]
Livin' on my phone and I'm counting down the golden days
Waiting out my prime all alone so I can feel your rays
It'll all be worth it as I sleep on that first night
With you next to me and I hold you in my arms so tight
Livin' on my phone and I'm counting down the golden days
Waiting out my prime all alone so I can feel your rays
It'll all be worth it as I sleep on that first night
With you next to me and I hold you in my arms so tight
Livin' on my phone and I'm counting down the golden days
Waiting out my prime all alone so I can feel your rays
It'll all be worth it as I sleep on that first night
With you next to me and I hold you in my arms so tight
