about

So happy it required a ukulele.
"I can't play the guitar. I can't play this either but I thought it might be less obvious" - Bernard Black.

lyrics

I've got a bad habit of falling in love with people I've just met, and I know I met you once before at my mate's 20th birthday, but you were drunk and I was stoned and neither of us had much to say.
So when I met you in a cemetery I didn't know what to expect, but I'm pretty hecking grateful you took me home when I was wrecked.
I'll turn up to your tiny room with a falafel kebab roll and we'll lie in bed all afternoon because we're young unprofessionals.
I haven't known you all that long but I'd like to live with you.
With your paintings, and my shitty songs, we might just afford a room for two.
You treat me like a princess, you kiss my shoulders when I sleep.
You told me you were falling for me, well darling I'm already in to deep.
You showed me Tarentino films I didn't really like and I watched you smoke out your bedroom window at night.
The streetlights are so bright.
I haven't loved you all that long but I'm starting to think I do.
I can't play the guitar but I'm trying to find you in these four chords, and I'm trying really fucking hard.
I don't know who I am, but I'll rip this song off Georgia Maq and then start all over again.
