(Hook)
I know you hate getting gifts
From all your family and friends
But can you please accept this?
Something I wanted to send
I’m sorry it’s a bit late
I’ll make it up on some day
You don’t have a list
I thought “I’ll try to surmise”
You know I won’t call it quits
Are you even surprised?
I’m sorry it’s a bit late
I’ll make it up on some day, for you
(Verse 1)
You said “don’t worry about it”
But I kept going
Running this inside my head,
I couldn’t sleep in peace while knowing
That I didn’t get you anything
But you deserve everything
And I’m not just being hyperbolic
Everything
And I wish I had a bigger wallet
Everything
But I know we’re just in college
I’m young and reckless
I’ve been skipping breakfast
Watching data, I don’t know when the next time that I’ll send a text is
One day, I’ll pick you up inside a Lexus
But the best that I can do for now is pick you up in a Toyota
Couldn’t afford ya
You’re practically priceless
You’d say it wasn’t true, but you’re humble, politeness
always running through ya
So, I made this gift
All for you, take a listen to this
(Verse 2)
We’ve done this tango before
It’ll never get old
We push our hearts into each other,
And see one of us fold
I’m sold, infatuated
My life alleviated
Prescribe the medication
I’m high, no explanation
But you
And I
Are some dynamic duo
In the Batmobile, we’re cranking Bruno
Singing parts that you know
Sooner or later, we’ll get to moments where we have nothing to give
Find out we’re at our limits
Admit that life is the pits
We’ve got our own problems
And we may never solve ‘em
My mom, she told me as you’re seeing something, call it out
But you’re my better half
Do the better math
Be the type of you you want to be, no one should ever ask
You to be different
I hope you give this album a listen
And I hope that I’m the one you’ll be kissing
Happy Valentine’s

Leave You With a Trace

(Chorus)
I just want to see your face
I just want a little taste
Play until the sun goes down
Then we get real loud
Wouldn’t have it any other way
I just want your warm embrace
I just want us in the same space
In case our paths will never cross again
I guess I’ll leave you with a trace of all the lovin’ that you’ll get
(Verse)
I don’t love for lover’s sake
I don’t throw these lines to be cliché
You don’t love for others’ sake
You don’t want to be a pawn in a love game
(Pre-chorus)
You and I
Collide
Sparks fly in the sunset
Must be why
Stomach inside
Butterflies in their unrest
I can share with you
The moon, if you wanted
The Earth keeps us parted
I don’t know what to do
What do I have to lose?
(Chorus)
I just want to see your face
I just want a little taste
Play until the sun goes down
Then we get real loud
Wouldn’t have it any other way
I just want your warm embrace
I just want us in the same space
In case our paths will never cross again
I guess I’ll leave you with a trace of all the lovin’ that you’ll get
(Bridge)
Passion makes the world spin endlessly
But passion makes me freeze
Your presence always brings me to my knees
Please

My Saint, My Valentine
02:58

You could be my saint, my valentine
Clear to see that you’re one of a kind
You could be my saint, my valentine
Promise I’ll be yours if you’ll be mine
Don a halo, then plan a date
You’re an angel, running Heaven’s gate
I’m an a-hole, but you think I’m worth saving
Dine at the table, but you’re the one I’m craving
Listen, I’m strangely optimistic
That you’re the type of guy who’ll spend a night around with this kid
I’m wishing there’ll be no other lover in your life
If I’ve done right, then we’ll be set to meet each other’s mothers
Got the dinner reservation
Pick you up: time and location
I’m the product of a 25 year sacrament, additives: love and patience
Sure, there’ll be rough tribulations
We cannot solve that equation
But if you give us a chance, I’ll say in advance
We’ll be a dope combination
You could be my saint, my valentine
Clear to see that you’re one of a kind (it’s true)
You could be my saint, my valentine
Promise I’ll be yours if you’ll be mine (I do)
Love is the key to make people the greatest they’ve been since the minute their bodies’ been born
Loving you makes me the luckiest man on the planet; who hasn’t their beating heart torn?
Love is a double-edge sword that will simul-plays chords of a fortune and Hemingway’s “worn”
Loving you makes me appreciate beauty: a rose to your name, but a bite of your thorn
I don’t want you to jump ship
But my gumption for us to start something
This bond isn’t nothing
We’re way past the level of superficial crushing
You’re cute when you’re blushing
Don’t deny it: it’s true
Can’t pack a whole fucking day with the way that I feel about you
Baby, I love
You could be my saint, my valentine (you know me)
Clear to see that you’re one of a kind (my only)
You could be my saint, my valentine (the holy)
Promise I’ll be yours if you’ll be mine
