Guess And Check

(album: Everything But What You Need - 2015)

You could tell I was nervous and that's nothing new
You said "Come with me, there's something that I want to show you."
So, expecting anything, I took your hand reluctantly
It wasn't long until you were saying "sorry."

I barely knew your name, but I was intrigued
You said "Love is guess and check" and I guess I would agree
I barely knew your name, but there I was in the passengers seat
To see if I had guessed correctly

That's when your shirt got caught in a barbed wire fence and I kissed you, in the freezing cold
I didn't know that you smoked
That's when we got in your car and you drove back home 'til you spun out, we were close to death
And I held my breath just for you

Just for you

You said you wanted movie scenes and melodies
But it's a lot of pressure trying to be the man of someone's dreams
So, I put my guard up, naturally
And I lost sight of you along the way

That's when your shirt got caught in a barbed wire fence and I kissed you, in the freezing cold
And I should have known that you smoked
That's when we got in your car and you drove back home 'til you spun out, we were close to death
And I held my breath just for you

Just for you
