Heartly was the first track I ever recorded with Josh. Before I met him at his to work on it, he would e-mail me different ideas he had for the track. I remember thinking, "Hooray, he get's me!"
I wrote this song during my senior year in college. The muse shall remain anonymous. However, you can pretend it's about you if you like.
lyrics
Did you ever think of falling in love with me?
I heartly know you
Did you ever think of saying you think of me?
I heartly want to.
Hearts, we're just scars
The passenger seat of our worn down cars
And hearts, they're just ours, they're just ours - ours.
Do you ever think of lovely catastrophes?
I heartly think so
Do you ever think of lying in bed with me?
I heartly, uh, no.
Hearts, we're just scars
The passenger seat of our worn down cars
And hearts, they're just ours, they're just ours - ours.
Do you ever get so sad when you fall asleep alone?
Do you ever miss the green in the garden you've outgrown?
Hearts, we're just scars
The passenger seat of our worn down cars
And hearts, they're just ours, they're just ours - ours.
Hearts, we're just ceiling stars.
I let your name glow above in the dark.
And heartaches, are just our aches, are just our stories to be told.
