Sudden Relief

(album: Dancer - 2022)

Lost cause, baby why'd you bother
You give and never receive the right attention from me
When I was broken, dirty and called it natural
I hadn't grown from the kid you use to dig way back then
And yet unafraid you waltz into my wicked world
Don't mind the ghosts while we sleep
We both prefer to leave early but do you want to go home?
Cause we can stay out, it's getting late out
We could go back home and watch our shows

We can move, we can stay
Make a home right here or far away
As long as I'm there with you
We can turn down the lights and draw the blinds
When the world outside has lost its mind
I feel a sudden relief whenever you're next to me

So hard, how can I even tell you
The kind of person I was before you gave me your love
I was naked, ready to give in to dying alone
But your eyes wide as the valley where I go alone every February
And now I want to go home
This place is played out
I want you right now
So lets go upstairs and love some more

We can move, we can stay
Make a home right here or far away
As long as I'm there with you
We can turn down the lights and draw the blinds
When the world outside has lost its mind
I feel a sudden relief whenever you're next to me

I'll keep you guessing
Limit my messes
And drive you through the New York state
When I'm racing
It's only you I'm missing
So pack me up and return me to love
Return me to love
Return me to love

We can move, we can stay
Make a home right here or far away
As long as I'm there with you
We can turn down the lights and draw the blinds
When the world outside has lost its mind
I feel a sudden relief whenever you're next to me

Whenever you're next to me
Whenever you're next to me
