about

I wrote this song after a trip with my, at the time, girlfriend. We traveled up to Big Sur with my extended family and her parents to Hurst Castle.It was a pretty monumental experience for me, all of us together. Soon after arriving home I proposed and she said yes.

lyrics

Five o'clock in the mornin'
I ain't up too early I just ain't been to bed
And no one really tells me what to do these days
I just listen out for the voice of my lady

I don't make much money
and I cant seem to sleep
I just walk to the living room
and stare in the dark
and I notice the squares of the art
that we've hung in our home.

And I've never loved you more at any other time
I've never loved you more at any other time than
Side by side on a bus my baby cousins asleep

And I'll never take another lover as my bride
No I'll never take another lover as my bride
I wana' kill our fears like glass on the Ragged point reef.

Yeah I love you baby like the green needles love these trees.

I try to make a living
I try to pitch a start
I'm just waiting on the time bomb
I strapped to my heart years ago
top tick off every meaningful second
to give me a chance wana make an impression

I got
Panic attacks on the line
got some medication
helping me keep it in check
but I cant write too many lines
in the book that I built from my debt

Yeah we're workin it out

And I've never loved you more at any other time
I've never loved you more at any other time than
Side by side on a bus my baby cousins asleep

And I'll never take another lover as my bride
No I'll never take another lover as my bride
I wana' kill our fears like glass on the Ragged point reef.

Yeah I love you baby like the green needles love these trees.
