about
a silly little ditty about feelings of infatuation and inadequacy :)
lyrics
it starts like this in a room so heavy
in a living room that feels like it don’t welcome me
my boots are tied in
my legs are crossed
this is what being alive costs
i got this melody in my mind that keeps me up at night
i have this urge to love her
but she don’t treat me right
my boots are tied in
my legs are crossed
this is what being alive costs
but i got this silly little belly ache
that i think is movin’ to my brain
i wanna tell ya
tell ya the truth, babe
i got this silly little belly ache
that i know is movin’ to my brain
i wanna tell ya
tell ya the truth, babe
you’re an angel from a higher world
but i’m feelin’ like i won’t be enough
you got me stutterin’ every time you walk
and i’m starin’ at your lips every time you talk
and this is where it starts
i got this feelin’ that you come with more than i know
but that’s okay ’cause i’m sure that i just want you to know that i’m in
i’m in i’m in i’m in for the long run
you have a heart that fills me like a balloon
and i would float for miles just to hear a tune that sounds
that sounds sounds sounds like you
but i got this silly little belly ache
that i know is moving to my brain
i wanna tell ya
tell ya the truth babe
but i got this silly little belly ache
and it’s movin’ up to my brain
i will tell ya
tell ya the truth babe
you’re an angel from a higher world
but i’m feelin’ like i won’t be enough
you got me stutterin’ every time you walk
and i’m starin’ at your lips every time you talk
and this is where it starts
(instrumental break, vocalization)
baby i got this silly little belly ache
and baby it’s migratin’ into a very gratin’ migraine
’cause baby my brain has a little belly ache
and i just feel like the roses will bloom
every time i’m with you
and the sun and the moon
it makes up all that you are
’cause i do
want to
love you
this belly ache has conquered my brain
but not much more than you
’cause i just feel like the roses will bloom
every time i’m with you
look at the sun and the moon girl
it makes up all that you are
’cause i do
want to
love you
this belly ache has conquered my brain
but not much more than you
no
no more than you
you know that nothing’s more than
more than you
