VERSE 1:

At first it was so shocking,

But then it was so normal, I'm telling you

You say that I'm a good boy

I say you smell like lavender and watermelon

Oooooh~

VERSE 2:

I hear the kids are talking,

They say I'm not too formal, ain't that the truth

You say that I'm a good boy

I say you smell like lavender and watermelon

Oooooh~

BRIDGE:

When the night comes, midnight hums,''' that's when you down sit next to me

When there's just crumbs, and I feel numb

You say the things I've always needed

Say I'm good and I'll believe it

VERSE 3:

I feel my tail wagging,

I rest my head in your lap now, denim blue

You say that I am a good boy

I say you smell like lavender and watermelon

Marshmellows, nutmeg and sledding

Warm pillows and brand new bedding

Birthday cake and fresh baked bread and

Lavender and watermelon

Lavender and watermelon

Ooooh...

Lavender And Watermelon (feat. opinionsaboutnothing)

VERSE:
You've been the only to make me laugh
Or to make me smile
You've been the only one to cross that gap
but our time was just for a while...
Yeah our time was just for a while...

You've been the only to make me laugh
Or to make me smile


Remember all those nights we used to chat
well, our time was just for a while...
yeah, our time was just for a while...

Ohhhh

CHORUS:
Look at that
~ ~ ~
Thoughts of you keep coming back
Push and pull
Just know that I'm grateful

Oh~

Thoughts of you come and go
Just know I'm...
Oh, I'm so grateful


SOLO:

Oh whoa~

CHORUS:
Look at that
~ ~ ~
Thoughts of you keep coming back
Push and pull
Just know that I'm grateful

Oh~

Thoughts of you come and go
Just know I'm...
Oh, I'm so grateful

You've been the only one
(Oh, I'm so grateful)
You've been the only one
(Oh, I'm so grateful)
You've been the only one
(Oh, I'm so grateful)

Grateful (2018)

VERSE 1

All that time in another life
I must have been a 'sight' for sore eyes
Am we getting too old~~~...?


all that time under the city 'lights'
wishin' thing'd go back to "alright"
I guess we never may know...


PRE-CHORUS

But I won't give up
And I won't back down

No I won't give up
And I won't back down

On you!

CHORUS

Give me a reason!

Cause I 
won't waste 
it all~

Some kind of truth
Just tell me who

now sings you
our summer songs

Long as it's ^true^
long as it's ^you^

Once yo mem'ry starts
fixin' broken hearts 

Then just tell me~ 
...and give me a reason~...!


VERSE 3

Wakeful into the dead of night
ever feeling in my bones is so light
Like I'm ready to fold...

PRE-CHORUS

But I won't give up
No I can't back down... 

And I won't give up
And I can't back down...
 
Not a little bit!


CHORUS

Give me a reason

Cause I 
won't waste 
it all~

Some kind of truth
Just tell me ^who^

now sings you
our summer songs

Long as it's ^true^
long as it's ^you^

Once that mem'ry starts
fixin' broken hearts 

Then just tell me~ 
...and give me a reason~...!


INTERLUDE:

[Repeat for 32]
Gotta know
Gotta know and
Gotta know right now

[Repeat for 32]
Oooh~~
oooh~

[Repeat for 32]
And I won't give up
And I won't back down


[Repeat for 32]
Just give me a reason~....

Just give me break

CHORUS

And Give me a reason!

Cause I 
won't wait 
too long~

Some kind of truth
Just tell me who

now sings you
our summer songs

As long as it's true
As long as it's you

Once your mem'ry starts
fixin' broken hearts 

Then just tell me~ 
...and give me a reason~...!
