about

For Simone, thank you for giving me something to look forward to :)
-
My first song recorded with my u-bass, and guitalele. Very proud of this one, very long time in the making

lyrics

Just another Saturday morning
My alarm starts off the day, chasing dreams away
The rain on my glasses, and the wind in my hair, feels foreign
Without a shadow of a doubt, I know it will all turn out
Okay

Just another Saturday afternoon
Sun is in the sky, you are on my mind
I can't wait to see you soon
To buy things we don't need, to get out there and seize
The day

And when I think of you and me
And all the time we've got ahead
Just wait and see how beautiful our lives will be
'Cause who knows what the future holds?
It's gonna be big, it's gonna be bright, it's gonna be bold
And girl, you got me sold

What an extraordinary day
My world came crashing down
And in the middle of it all I found you smiling bright as day
Lying by my side you found me
It all fits together when your arms are around me

And when I look into your eyes
It's no surprise, I see my future by your side
Hand in hand, against the the world, just you and I
'Cause who knows what the future holds?
It's gonna be big, it's gonna be bright, it's gonna be bold
And girl, you got me sold
