Had You Known Me Better

from Debut by Poppy Brothers

lyrics

I've been thinking about architecture
and the way we would look together.
I could build us a house, we could make it a home.
If you let me in, you'll never go out alone.

It's been getting better since we've been apart.
Your salt in my wound has only seasoned my heart.
Girl, you looked so sweet in that summer dress--
I'm so bitter I just have to confess:

Had you known me better, you would love me.

It's been getting better since my feelings were told:
Your smile lights lives like sunlight but my skyline's turning gold.
Girl, you looked so sweet in that summer dress--
I'm so bitter I just have to confess:

Had you known me better, you would love me.

It's been getting better.
The ocean rises to meet the sky.
There's plenty more fish in the sea for me,
but you're like Loch Ness: one of a kind.
Girl, we're getting older.
It's better to live while we're alive.
Won't you walk on the water with me
and turn these sour grapes into wine?

Had you known me better, you would love me.
