Remembering first moments of a young love

lyrics

Buttery Sort of Dream

Won’t you stick with me
Like a buttery sort of dream
Won’t you stick with me
I promise I will learn how to breathe

And we were like rockets
In a sordid night sky
Providing light to fallacies,
On the stars of which we resided

And we weren't much more
Than sex and weed and whiskey

And we weren't much more than
Lust, sunshine, and beats

We weren't more than
Wine, fresh minds, and frisking

We were more than
Anything you could believe in

Anything you could believe in
X2

Won’t you stick with me
Like a buttery sort of dream?
Won’t you stick with me,
Darlin’
I promise we won’t atrophy

We were pockets of laughter
In a muddled moat of madness
And our pillow talk and candor
Was always laced with pure sass

And we weren’t more than
Sex and sea and whiskey
And we weren’t more than
Synchrodestiny

And we weren't more than
Lust, sunshine, and beats

We were more than
Anything you could believe in
Anything you could believe in
