TS: Now I want to hear this voice. Play the track in background but I want you to sing what you have right now live to us. Maybe it'll help you with also coming up with lyrics as your singing instead of hearing yourself back

I rub back of my neck while saying

Me: I don't know I mean uhhh

SG: Cmon please Veronica? PLEEEEEAAAAAASSSEEEEEEEEEE

Me: Ok fine but no judgements!

They both pumped their fist in the air while I played the track and started singing:

'Cause it's only been two months and six days
And I ain't tryna sound crazy

But, 'I love you', is on the tip of my tongue
And I want you to want me to be the one
And I almost tell you every night
When we're getting off FaceTime
I drunk text you, but let my friends read it first
'Cause it's too soon for those three little words
I'll tell you one day, but for now, babe
I'll add it to the list of the things I can't say

I had a daydream you proposed
We got hitched on the beach that day
Had a honeymoon on the Maui coast
Couldn't wipe the smile off my face

It's only been two months and six days
And I ain't tryna sound crazy

But, 'I love you', is on the tip of my tongue
And I want you to want me to be the one
And I almost tell you every night
When we're getting off FaceTime
I drunk text you, but let my friends read it first
'Cause it's too soon for those three little words
I'll tell you one day, but for now, babe
I'll add it to the list of the things I can't say

I don't wanna scare you off
You're the best thing that I've got
I don't wanna scare you off
You're the best thing that I've got

But, 'I love you', is on the tip of my tongue
And I want you to want me to be the one (I want you)
And I almost tell you every night
When we're getting off FaceTime (getting off FaceTime)
I drunk text you, but let my friends read it first
'Cause it's too soon for those three little words
I'll tell you one day, but for now, babe
I'll add it to the list of the things I can't say

You know I want to, babe
Yeah, you know I want to, babe, yeah
You know I want to, babe
I'll add it to the list of the things I can't say

I finished singing and looked at Taylor and Selena who had huge smiles on their faces. 


SG: That sounded amazing

TS: It really did and seems like it's all written, I don't see what the struggle is. 

Me: It's the beginning of the song. I cant figure out how to start it off. 

SG: Hmm well the song is about how you see your future with her and that you love her right? 

Me: Yeah?

TS: Well how do you picture your future with her then? When you see your future with Lizzie 10 years from now what do you see? 

Me: I see us with a house by a body of water, whether that's a beach or lake or intercoastal. 

SG: Ok what else do you see? 

Me: I see us with a couple kids who have her green eyes and just mini hers. I see them having my athleticism and love for sports. I see Lizzie and I being sort of like soccer moms, for lack of a better word, going to their games and being one big happy family. 

TS: I got it. Why not try this....(She sings)  I see us in a ranch house with a pond. A couple kids with your baby blues. Bet you'll look good as a soccer mom. But ain't no way that I'm telling you. Cause  (Stops singing)..... And then goes into the rest of the song you have? 

Me: That's great I love it! You two have literally been such a lifesaver I don't know how I'll ever thank you for it. But question, why'd you go with blue instead of green? Other than rhyming it with you? 

TS: Well you said you didn't want her to know it was about her until you told her right? Well if you said green eyes it would be obvious that it was about her or she would've been hell bent on figuring out an ex that had green eyes and from what Sel told me your most recent ex has greenish eyes and is close friends with Lizzie so thought blue was a safer bet. Plus I needed something to rhyme with "you" at the end haha. 

We all laughed. I went into the booth to record the whole song while Taylor and Selena helped on the other side of the window with playing the song in my headphones etc. 

When everything was finished I thanked them again before they had to leave. I sat and put it all on a USB which I took with me back to my place to show Lizzie. 

Given how late it is I can't show her tonight but tomorrow I'm going to play the songs for her and tell her where I've been spending all my time and get her opinions on it. 

Hopefully she likes them, they're all like my babies. I'm curious to see which will be her favorite though.
