about

I wrote this song actually a few years ago but only recently got around to recording it

lyrics

What we have isn't something that can burn to the core
With its rampant fire and flames
What we have has yet no name

What we have is awkward and informal, just like us
Just like everything we do
Just silly me and you

PRECHORUS:
But I don't know if we should call it love
I wouldn't quite call it that yet
But please, dear, don't fret
'Cause I don't know
How these things grow
To embrace us, to encompass
All the world will show

CHORUS:
Cus I am young, and there are many things
That I have yet to see
I have yet to be
And some seem to think that
What they have is unlike anything
The world has ever seen
But I am not quite so naive

CHORUS 2:
Cus I am young, but I am cautious
Not to throw these words around
My feet are on the ground
And I don't feel, no,
I don't feel like I am flying
Like poets say, or prose
I just feel a bit more happy when you're near
That's all I know
That's all I know

What we have is like a painting that's been set out to dry
Like clay that has yet to fire
A rocket shooting higher

What we have is so much more than what we have
Do you sort of understand?
For now just take my hand

PRECHORUS
