lyrics

Everything is in its best light
A mad parade
But now I think I’ve found her
My golden girl
And you’re not off the hook
‘Til you come along with me
No more vacant arms at sunrise
Sweetie Pie

Could this fascination be the end of me
A sensation so sweet
And now your eyes confess
Your heart is ready to be held
But may I be the one
I’ve seen these things before
But can I endure?

Do you have time for tea for two?
There’s a cute little shop, I think the manager’s new
Equal companions digging forsaken acts
Inspiring spectacles at the drop of a hat

With my sweetie, with my sweetie pie
Under a blanket, under a blanket blue
Sweetie, with my sweetie pie
Under a blanket, under a blanket of blue

I speak of laughter and I speak of tears
And of here after and faded years
In wooded glen and moonlit stream
I sing again a lover’s dream
And I believe when shadows fall
My heart will call out to the music of another day
And to you baby, baby, baby

Do you have time for something new?
I’ve just heard the news, they love the work that you do
So stay in the moment, cause lest we forget
Time always plays tricks and I take the bet

With my sweetie, with my sweetie pie
Under a blanket, under a blanket blue
Sweetie, with my sweetie pie
Under a blanket, under a blanket of blue

"Max Gardener's music can be best described as "Barbecue Pop" - a delightful fusion of dream pop's ethereal charm with a sprinkle of lightheartedness and warmth. Just like a perfect summer barbecue, Max's songs invite listeners to indulge in a sonic feast, where the melodies sizzle, the rhythms groove, and the lyrics spark conversations around the grill." ... more
