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 )
