about

This song was written while I was visiting Chiang Mai in Thailand. I fell it represents my songwriting style perfectly, incorporating quirky lyrics and a playful arrangement. The end of the song is my favourite. If anyone is interested in making a video for this please get in touch!

lyrics

I have a knack for getting men to lie
next to me in bed
I tell the truth but mostly waste their time with stories in my head

and the shoes that I wear are so worn
all the clothes that i hoard are too dear

And I haven't felt this good before
without feeling sick
after words

let's take a trip we'll see if we can fly
i'm gonna jump in first coz
i have a knack for bending space and time
but this is gonna hurt

and I can't guarantee that we'll come back
And if we do you your heart won't be in tact

But we can't stay here coz we don't stand still…

Not for anyone
not for any thrill
so let's not stay here
and fall
in love

we'll only fall out again
and you'll go all weird

INSTRUMENTAL

…never catch up, never catch up with us
never catch up, never gonna catch us up
(repeat)

I have a knack for faking things are fine
when everything's a mess
I got your back but you have got to try
coz this is not a test

so please take a risk and come with me
coz there's so many things you're got to see

we can't stay here coz I don't stand still

not for any thrill...
