You Had Me At Hello

from Midwest Boundaries EP by Brock Alekna

	/

lyrics

The hour's late / I’m counting down / but time means nothing to me / here in my head / here in my bed / I’m looking for something to believe

But I could believe in you / and everything you say / you’re too good to be true but every dog has his day

One chance is all I need / just take my hand and follow my lead / I look at you as you look away I guess I’ll try another day / but I just can’t let you go / cause I swear girl you had me / you had me at hello

Storm the castle / save the girl / but only in my dreams / nothing more surely less is always what it seems

You’ve got it high / I’ve got it low / you’ve got everything else that makes my heart go / It goes boom / bah-rump-bum-bum / you got my heart beating like a drum

And that drum’s gonna play / cause every dog has his day / and that day will be mine / cause I know I’m gonna shine / I’m gonna shine
