its killa i found Ziggy Alberts from his cover of walk you home and now yous are on a track together with reference to it and a song with the same feel love this song keep it up boys!!
Been working through a pretty big break up and as always Nick taps that simple but central emotional vein. The futility of banging on the gates of heaven contrasted with the mundane imagery of picking up coffee (in a keep cup no less, nice touch) renders that complicated feeling of attraction being at once so accessible and immediate, yet totally head-in-the-clouds stuff. Great tune, as always adit’s prod adds a welcome warmth. Big love from brissy boys
Lyrics: ↓↓↓↓ Woke up in the night from a bad dream Calling out your name but I couldn’t reach you Maybe I was wired off the caffeine Then the morning came and I couldn’t wait to see you Two flat whites in a keep cup Grab em’ from the cafe then I’m on my way to meet up And if it’s cold out then I know we’ll turn the heat up Open up a magazine kick back and put our feet up, hey And I dunno how else to say this but I ain’t never felt this way and I don’t wanna lose you but if I ever do you can bet that there’ll be hell to pay I, I won't give you up There's things I just don't know how else to say These things that I’m most worried about Is that heaven might come down and steal you away Away Steal you away Now ain’t it funny how the ones that you drag all the way through your hell Are the same who can teach you how to touch heaven as well And how these long days got me in a hurry And I still lie awake at night worrying About my biggest fear that you’ll disappear I wanna be near you, my dear, you’re my souvenir One that I revere, so come here you If the water’s rough then I will steer you Somewhere we can leave all of our troubles in the rearview It’s pretty clear heaven’s where you're heading But I don’t reckon I’d get let in So let’s make it here and now, if only for a second We know there’s no time like the present And I don’t wanna wait - if not today, then some other day We know heaven’s gonna place an order for take away So let’s make a date, don’t know when but we know what awaits And when it comes, bet that I’ll be banging on the gates, singing I, I won’t give you up (won’t give you up so don’t you give up on me) There’s things I just don’t know how else to say (because sometimes the words won’t come to me) These things that I’m most worried about (so hear me out, I don’t wanna be without you) Is that heaven might come down and steal you away (you can bet that I’ll be banging on the gates, singing) Is heaven might come down and steal you away (said I’ll be banging on the gates, singing) Is heaven might come down and steal you away (said i'll be banging on the gates, singing) Heaven might come down and steal you away
