about

A catchy indie-folk-pop sing-along that recounts the start of a life-altering romance.

lyrics

A one, two, three, four

I see you there
You’re aimin’ my direction with that shotgun stare
And I can’t bear. No, no
To see you walk away
We can go anywhere tonight

Doo-de-do-do
Doo-de-do-de-do-doo-do

And I don’t know (Who who who)
Who you are or where you’ve been or where you’ll go
I tell you though, Mumma
You gotta tell me how you like it, Baby
We’ll go fast or real slow
Fast or slow. De-do-de-do
Do do do doo do do

My heart it really aches sometimes
For all the stories that are fake online
Your chocolate milk will never shake
For all the promises ya break
It’s up we all have gotta wake
To all the chances and mistakes
Go tell the world for goodness sake
You call it luck, I call it fate

And why oh why? (Why oh why)
Why aren’t you dancin’ with me, Baby? I could make you fly
My oh my, Mumma
The way you’re movin' and you're groovin’ wanna
Freeze this moment in time
Other boys get in line. Doo-de-do
Do do do doo do do

My heart it really aches sometimes
For all the stories that are fake online
Your chocolate milk will never shake
For all the promises ya break
It’s up we all have gotta wake
To all the chances and mistakes
Go tell the world for goodness sake
You call it luck, I call it fate

This tide is high from morn ’til nigh
Don’t you make me cry
Run, let’s fly away
Rain go come back some day
We’ll go catch some rays
Rain go come back some day

She said "Boy, young is this night" oh
"Don’t rush things that take time”. Oh lord
"If you could read my mind you’d know it’s fine”.
Other boys get in line
You know you’re mine, Baby
Other boys get in line. Doo-de-do
Do do do doo do do

My heart it really aches sometimes
For all the stories that are fake online
Your chocolate milk will never shake, ah no
For all the promises ya break
It’s up we all have gotta wake
To all the chances and mistakes, yeah
Go tell the world for goodness sake
You call it luck, I call it fate
