lyrics

I wanna take a stupid picture we both pretend to hate
I wanna fight a losing battle for a cause neither one of us appreciates
Break a million tv sets
Tragic puppet shows with silhouettes
Make sure every room’s a mess
Forget every code and key
I wanna share secrets and share battle scars
Spits, spills, support and vcrs
Make everyday extraordinary
Carve it out of the mundane
​
And I don’t have blue eyes like you dreamed about
And I don’t have the type of hair you wanted
I don’t hypnotize like girls in magazines
But I’d still kind of love to love you
And if you don’t mind I would love it
If you could kinda love me too
​
I wanna cram a lifetime into every date
I wanna sail the world via google and champagne
Skip a class to see magic
Surf on buses though there’s room to sit
Make pillow forts we barely fit
Sing the wrong words to songs that haven’t been invented yet
I wanna write our names in the pavement
I wanna save your from all the dangers of
Society and apathy
From piety and sanity
Sobriety audacity and everything that’s meant to be
​
And I don’t have blue eyes like you dreamed about
And I don’t have the type of hair you wanted
I don’t hypnotize like girls in magazines
But I’d still kind of love to love you
And if you don’t mind I would love it
If you could kinda love me too
​
And I know that there are stormy clouds ahead
And I know that it’s a battle without end
And there are times when I’m a fool
Or you’re so accidentally cruel
But I think that I could trek it if you’d lend a hand
Even though
​
I don’t have blue eyes like you dreamed about
And I don’t have the type of hair you wanted
I don’t hypnotize like girls in magazines
But I’d still kind of love to love you
And if you don’t mind I would love it
If you could kinda love me too
Kinda love me too
Kinda love me too
I would kinda love it
Because I kinda love you

Keats Conlon Windsor, Ontario

Alternately sweet and devastating, Keats' songs constantly challenge your assumptions as to what a woman can do with just her voice and a guitar. Prepare for delicate, playful, and visceral songs that you won't want to end. ... more
