I'm not one of those girls with man after man
I could never fall in love that many times
Twice to be exact
Not likely to happen again for a while
I'd always rush over right after work
I could never get to you fast enough
You'd welcome me in
And we'd quickly begin playing records and such
On those nights it was simple and it was sweet
We were all about telling stories
Talking about futures and dreams
And it just so happened that you were both for me
You understood them all, oh you did
Remember that party
When somehow every single wine glass was broken?
I helped you clean up
Gathered my stuff and said I must be getting home
You ran after me like there was something you needed
Then you kissed me
I wanted to stay, but I floated away
And knew that so much remained
On those nights it was simple and it was sweet
We were all about telling stories
Talking about the future and dreams
And it just so happened that you were both for me
You understood them all, oh you did
Sometimes I catch myself staring across the street
Thinking about my favorite stories
Hitting play and then repeat
And it just so happens that you were everything

They picked my favorite city to feature first. There are so many more artists from Oakland that would be worth looking into, but this collection takes me back to my favorite summer. Johannes Duckeck
Future funk grooves, synthesized vocals, and plush, pristine arrangements make the NYC/Tokyo duo's debut a must-hear for city pop fans. Bandcamp New & Notable Nov 8, 2023
