Lyrics

About a Girl (Your Move Chief)

Genres: Country, Pop, Rock

I know the streets every crack,
Ever bar & broken sign,
I know the faces looking back,
But none of them know mine,

I’ve learnt to leave before I’m left,
To laugh before they see me hurt,
Keep every good thing at arms length,
Like somehow I’m making it work,

Pre chorus:
You could tell me I’m worth saving,
I’d find a reason to disagree,
Cause it’s easier to call it nothing,
Than to risk it meaning something to me

Chorus:
Maybe I could let somebody in,
And stay instead of run,
Maybe there’s a life beyond this town,
That shines in a hopeful sun,
The closerrr you get,
The more I push you away,
Bostons mine & here I’ll stay…

How’d you like them apples?
A witty quip to mask the pain,
I could spend my whole life proving’
I’m the smartest in the room again

Yeah ‘my boys hella smart’
A chalkboard equation, the spoken word
Can recite a sonnet, explain life’s art,
But still I don’t know what I deserve

Pre chorus;
You could tell me it’s not my fault,
I’d find a way to disagree,
I could tear your fucking world apart,
Deflecting my insecurities

Chorus;

Maybe I could let you in,
And stay instead of run,
Maybe there’s a life beyond this town,
That shines in a hopeful sun,
The closerrrr you get,
The more I push you away,
Bostons mine & here I’ll stay

You sat me down upon a bench,
Gazed upon a tranquil pond,
‘Visiting hours don’t apply’
When you have that special bond,

With every word you opened my eyes,
Broke down my barriers
& gave me belief,
My choices are mine,
My own free will,
‘Your move chief’

Chorus;

Maybe now I’ll let you in,
& Together we can run
And find a life beyond this town,
That shines in a hopeful sun,
& now chuckie can smile,
It’s the best part of his day,
No goodbye or see you later,
I’m chasing better days,

Outro:
Boston was my home,
My selfish fucked up little world,
Today I’m choosing me,
‘I’m going to see about a girl
