about

I wrote, played, recorded & mixed this song in my old bedroom. It talks about the challenges of growing up and the fading care free spirit of childhood.

I hope you enjoy this song.

lyrics

It’s time to chase our memories
And figure out, our childhood dreams
It’s time for us to live and breath
Far from our homes and far from our streets

Let’s meet this lovely mess that awaits
And fix ourselves up, pretend we don’t need help
So, I would rather stay seventeen
Living care free with my baby

I just want you, with me
You’re all I need
Just to hold you and see
How it still feels

Show me what you’ve been talking about
When we were young and playing in the grass
Show me this world you’ve been painting out
I thought it was fun, to not know where I’m at

All I see are grown-ups acting the same
Thinking they’re smart but they’re all fucking insane
That’s why I’d rather stay seventeen
Living care free with my baby

I just want you, with me
You’re all I need
Just to hold you and see
How it still feels

I just want you, with me
You’re all I need
Just to hold you and see
How it still feels
