about

This song is my perception of knowing you love
someone, and not being able to express it. It’s about when you struggle to find the right words that say how you feel in the moment, and then dwell on it after. The song title came about as a joke about a girl who views calling someone ‘girl’ disrespectful, which I found unusual. -GB

lyrics

I was driving down I-75 / with no hands on the wheel / trying to find the words that convey / the way that you make me feel / the cars fly by like all the times / that I could have said what I meant / and meant it / but those times there / in my rear view mirror / drift farther away

Now this liquor in my glass has failed / to wash away my past / where I said everything that I wanted to say / under my breath as you were
walking away / I feel at home when we’re alone / and lost when we’re with others / and will I find the words today / that will make you feel / the way
you make me feel

RIGHT NOW GIRL CAN’T YOU SEE / THE THINGS THAT WE COULD BE / AND I’M ON MY KNEE GIRL DON’T YOU LEAVE / ALL NIGHT ALL NIGHT CAN’T YOU SEE / THE THINGS THAT WE COULD BE / AND I’M ON MY KNEE GIRL DON'T YOU LEAVE / DON’T LEAVE

Well I’ll never be the president / but if you search your heart / you’ll find my love to be relevant / and I’ll stand in the DETROIT cold / and wipe the snow off your windows / until you see / that you’re the one for me
