about

This song is really what this album is about for me. I just want to sing songs. And I'm really very okay with no one getting into my music or me as a person. The privilege of being able to sing is really all I'm interested in. Did I say singing? Maybe I meant loving you.

lyrics

Somewhere along the way I lost it
And I've been chasing cars ever since
Wouldn't really know what to do
If one would stop
Please, don't stop
Lemme keep on barking

I just wanna write a song with strings
Mmhmm
Don't really care if no one sings it
Mmhmm
Don’t really care if no one ever hears this song
As long as I get to sing it

Somewhere along the way I floated
Past the trees and the moon and the sun
And the pointlessness of it all
Sunk right in
Let's begin
From the start

I just wanna write a song with strings
Mmhmm
Don't really care if no one sings it
Mmhmm
Don’t really care if no one ever hears this song
As long as I get to sing it

And if you don’t mind
I'm gonna build a home inside my heart
Mmhmm
And I'd love for you to come and rip right through it
‘Cause if you ever find yourself just circling round
I'll still be sitting here singing
