Liner Notes

Lyrics

Whenever we lock eyes, my feet get lighter You go on twirling your wrist I can feel my leash get tighter I mistake this chokehold you’ve got on me For affection every time

Screaming it until I go hoarse I’ve been waiting for it violently all this time Now that I’m officially yours Can I make you mine?

Now, I’m not blind, I see the warnings I tread carefully but you’re so disarming My mistake, I don’t hold things together long I have a knack for always getting it wrong

Screaming it until I go hoarse I’ve been waiting for it violently all this time Now that I’m officially yours Can I make you mine? (Can I make you mine?)

Beating it like a dead horse I’ll be waiting for you right until the end of my life I’ll always be officially yours But you’ll never be mine

The disconnect between the desire of the narrator and the way it is not reciprocated in the lyric is belied by the happy bouncy uke line. Solid write!

Ouch. You really capture the thing where sometimes the worse people treat us, the more we go into overdrive trying to earn their love. It's sick! 💘 Cheerful uke ditty

I really liked your inflection on disarming and the lyric I'll be waiting for you right until the end of my life is very dark dreamy 👏🏻

Such a difference between the cheery ukulele strumming and the message. Love the hoarse/horse parallel. Great write.
