fun fact: this song is literally based my valentine's this year, i'm not even joking about what i said in the 2nd verse. that's why there's a pic of taylor above lol
1ST VERSE:
I've never been in love before
Oh, there's nothing like this
A feeling so euphoric
Wanting to fully commit
I've got to speak truth
It's you I'd wish to pursue
PRE-CHORUS:
I'm writing songs so personal
We're saying 'I love you' like an oath
So what if I'm falling?
Love isn't for show
It's best if you don't know
CHORUS:
There I was, on Valentine's Day
My heart skipping many beats
Hoping eventually you'll feel the same
So in love on Valentine's Day
Feeling giddy, adrenaline rushing
I hope you feel the same
2ND VERSE:
Listening to Taylor Swift
Baking cookies in the kitchen
Tryna get my mind off you
Hoping you'll pull through
And you won't leave me
So I turned on the TV
And watched High School Musical The Series
Completely simping over Ricky
Ofcourse, it's you always
Cause this love is more than a crush
PRE-CHORUS:
Leaving hints you dismiss
When it don't feel platonic
So what if I'm falling?
Love isn't for show
One day I'll let you know
CHORUS:
There I was, on Valentine's Day
My heart skipping many beats
Hoping eventually you'll feel the same
So in love on Valentine's Day
Feeling giddy, adrenaline rushing
I hope you feel the same
BRIDGE:
Am I out of line? Out of time?
What we got, what if I mess it up?
Falling for my former best friend
Thought we reached our end
I'm so glad we've had the chance
To re-connect and begin again
Maybe this time as romance?!?!
BREAKDOWN:
You're were there always
The kind who'd give risk her life for mine
And that's why I'm falling
You're so sweet and I'm so grateful
I ought to stop stalling
It's cliche, but you're my everything
CHORUS:
There I was, on Valentine's Day
My heart skipping many beats
Hoping eventually you'll feel the same
So in love on Valentine's Day
Feeling giddy, adrenaline rushing
I hope you feel the same
It's so funny that I'm writing this now, bahaha-
Point is I'm a versatile songwriter. I can write about past experiences and make it sound so new and fresh, like I just went through it. It's Pride month rn, not Valentine's lmao.
my family had to go somewhere- attend urgent business, so there I was- secret jokes, no one's home, 16 and wild. I spent the day having a Harry Styles music video marathon, baking cookies whilst bopping out to the Midnights album by Taylor Swift. Then once the cookies were ready I took advantage that I had the TV to myself and watched HMTMTS and thinking how fine Ricky Bowen aka Joshua Bassett is 😍
Bridge withheld refs to my fav Gracie Abrams song 'Mess It Up' 💗 and song titles to The Weeknd's 'Out Of Time' and Taylor Swift's 'Begin Again'. Something I like to do sometimes in my songs is ref other songs- especially if they apply to the situation the song is about. Pretty sure Joshua Bassett has done the same with Bruno Mars 'Talking To The Moon' in his song 'i'm sorry'. I mean, it's not confirmed but...
So yeah, that's all I'm going to say considering I've already babbled way too much 😅💗 ( I spent this explanation talking about my stans rather than the song subject )
