Description
The track sounds like a morning conversation in the kitchen, when the coffee is still bitter, the cigarette is barely smoldering, and the words get mixed up between “it's love” and “maybe it just seemed that way.” A little chaotic, a little dramatic, but warm - as if an argument about feelings turns into a duet, where one voice laughs at anxiety, and the other still seeks confirmation. The music gently rocks you, like a swing: back and forth between doubt and tenderness. And somewhere in between, a feeling arises that yes, it seems that this is it after all.
Lyrics and translation
Original
[Verse 1: Oliver Sim, Katie O'Neill, Both]
I've been in my head all day
Thinking on what I did or did not say
Anything I accidentally made, you know
I only ever want to be loved
Is that too much?
Boy, please
You're sounding just a touch crazy
Like nothing but cigarettes and coffee can be
We all want to be loved
But in my heart all I feel is
[Refrain : Oliver Sim]
Do-do, do-do, do-do, do-do-do
Do-do, do-do, do-do, do-do-do
Do-do, do-do, do-do, do-do-do-do
[Verse 2: Katie O'Neill, Oliver Sim]
Oh, baby, that's a lot
It's enough to scare a strong man off
But it happens to the best of us, I swear
Obsession mistaken for lust
You're not in love
But wait, I think it's just too soon to say
It isn't love, maybe not yesterday
Back then I didn't feel this much
It must be love when I'm here
