Kiley Lotz took over a decade to write this song, beginning when she was in her mid-teens. “In church, I was just sitting around. I was like 16… I wrote that first line down on a piece of paper and I just kept it. I liked the line. I didn’t really know what I was going to do with it, but I liked it....
The stardust in you is so evident
I wish I could kiss every speck of it
Remnants of The Beginning now that we are at the end
You’re skeptical of sentiment, sentiment
Now we’ve made our way through each other
Now we’re left with no clothes
Making mistakes and getting guarded
I can’t say
I can't say I didn’t love you
Love you
Now we’re living in shitty apartments
With mismatched dishes, unlike our parents
Maybe we’d make good parents?
Maybe not
I can’t say
Ooh, I can’t say
Ooh, I can't say I didn’t love you
Now we’ve made our way through each other
Now we’re left with no clothes
Making mistakes and getting guarded
I can’t say
I can't say I didn’t love you
Love you
Now we’re living in shitty apartments
With mismatched dishes, unlike our parents
Maybe we’d make good parents?
Maybe not
I can’t say
(Under streetlight, you are forever mine)
Ooh, I can’t say, ooh, I can't say
(Under streetlight, you are forever mine)
Ooh, I can't say, ooh, I can't say, ooh, I can't say
(Under streetlight, you are forever mine)
I didn’t love you
(Under streetlight, you are forever mine)
