I was struggling how to express how I felt about a girl that I really liked, and this song came from that struggle. Hope you enjoy it!


This is another single off my album, 54 Degrees that was released in July. It was originally written in 2012, and published on the album 45 Degrees, then completely re-recorded in July 2014. 2 years of recording practice helps you refine your craft a tad, and I'm very happy with how this turned out.


Thanks to my dad for creating the kinetic typography for the video.

Lyrics:

v1
Figure out
Why it is I can't just
shout it out
"She's a beautiful girl!"
And so let'em know.
Put my voice into the air, and let it flow.
But it's a cruel world
I know;
I know.

chorus
Ever since I met you
You know I'd never ever let you down
Just make some sound.
Sometimes I can't take it;
You would be my blanket.
And you may be just a girl,
But you stand out from all the others
In this world.

v2
I turn to stone
I'm clueless when I hear you
on the telephone
I don't know what to say
I got to slow it down
Kick it down a notch and try to stay in bounds.
Gotta keep it in play
I know;
I know.

repeat chorus

bridge
I would sail across the ocean
And repeat in slow motion
Just to say "you're beautiful"
I can't be your prince charming
But I'd never be harming
You know,
You know.
You know

outro
Looking into your eyes
Made me realize
That they never stay the same
They're constantly getting prettier
Every day.
