The song encapsulates the age-old conversation between our head and heart, the intimate dance between feeling like you have control over how you feel and being at the total mercy of your emotions. The dreamy guitar and sparse and sparkling drum-beat; The slow pulse of the track sits, supporting the emotive vocals, reminding the listener of being lost in a sea of heady romance.
lyrics
[Verse 1]
We’ve been treading fine lines for so long
Shades of grey cells slayed, in the name of love
It seems to be, more frequently you give me feelings
We made no plans, you take my hand but I am leading, Ooh
[Pre -Chorus]
We dove so deep into this vibe
Did we cross the line, or will I see you the next lifetime
You’re what I want, I see you like it
[Chorus]
Always on my mind, I see you behind my eyelids
I’m not yours and you’re not mine
Do we cross the line, or do we meet in the next lifetime
I don’t fall for guys like this
Love is on my mind, I kiss you behind my eyelids
Love is on my mind, I kiss you behind my eyelids
Love is on my mind, I kiss you behind my eyelids
[Verse 2]
Simple concepts somehow get drawn out
Long lost moments, I’m hopeless, hold me down
You shine your light into my life and give me healing
I need some peace, give me relief and share my feelings with me
[Pre-Chorus]
We dove so deep into this vibe
Did we cross the line, will I see you the next lifetime
You’re what I want, I see you like it
You're always on my mind, I see you behind my eyelids
I’m not yours and you’re not mine
Till we cross this line, do we meet in the next lifetime?
I don’t fall for guys like this
Love is on my mind, I kiss you behind my eyelids
[Chorus]
We dive so deep into this vibe
Did we cross the line, or will I see you the next lifetime
You’re what I want, I see you like it
You're always on my mind, I see you behind my eyelids
I’m not yours and you’re not mine
Do we cross this line, do we meet in the next lifetime?
[Outro]
I don’t fall for guys like this
I don’t fall for guys like this
Love is on my mind, I kiss you behind my eyelids
I don’t fall for guys like this
