about

This track is unfortunately a bit sad for me in retrospect, so I was unable to bring myself to re-record it for Bandcamp Friday. However, it is still very important to me as it serves as a reminder of where I want to be, so I thought even this version of it would be worth posting. And although this perfect little future may not be how, or with whom I pictured it with when I first wrote this, I'm still striving for a future as bright as this one.

lyrics

The smell of salt and coffee wafting
The chatter from the street of starting cars
And there we are

A blush of flustered hugs and kisses
A rush of toast and dirty dishes for us
We’ll do it later love

And the dog it keeps on barking
So we walk it to the beach
Find some familiar friendly faces
So we catch up for a drink
Oh what a lovely dream

A perfect little future with you
Misaligned and out of time
Still trying to see it through
A happy could-be memory
A love too warm to lose
But what comes first
Is the lover’s curse
Is it me or is it loving you
I think two things can be true

No I don’t wanna leave
But I don’t wanna stray too far from who we are
Still, I’m happy to see you too…
So let’s put it to review
Don’t measure the time it hurts
And whenever we talk it’s sometimes worse
I just wanted to hold you

I don’t want to choose
When it’s all lose, lose, lose

To share the smell of morning coffee
Is all I wanted for us
Although it’s far

To wake up to your hugs and kisses
With a list of things we did for love

Build a space to make things better
Help each other’s dreams come true
Though that’s looking so much later
And our eyes have frozen blue

A perfect little future with you
Misaligned and out of time
Still trying to see it through
A happy could-be memory
A love too warm to lose
But what comes first
Is the lover’s curse
Is it me, or is it loving you
Is it me, or is it loving you
Is it me, or is it loving you
Is it me, or is it loving you
I hear two things can be true
