This song, for a change of pace, is about being in love with my wife. It was supposed to come out kind of soppy and very melodic and in short order became super fast and shouty. Kind of like the love I have for my wife.....
lyrics
Pre Verse:
What did I do to make you love me,
I don’t know but I’m fucking glad it worked
I don’t know what the future holds
But I’m motherfucking glad you’re gonna be there.
Verse 1:
Is it the way I dress, sleeveless band shirt and holes in my jeans,
Is it my sense of humour laughing at a dead cat in the street
Whatever made it happen I guess I’ll never understand
But just know I’m grateful to be the one to hold your hand,
Hold your hand.
Verse 2:
Would you still feel this way even if you saw my inner mind,
Would you still rip my clothes off, show me heaven, leaving me begging more,
Whatever made it happen guess I’ll never really understand
But just know I’m grateful to be the one to hold your hand
Hold your hand
Verse 3:
Am I an idiot, not realising my own self value yeah?
But would you love me then, when I’m strutting like a cockerel
Whatever made it happen guess I’ll never really understand
But just know I’m grateful to be the one to hold your hand
Hold your hand
