We Should Be Friends
Josh Ramsay Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You smile, I don't know what to say
But I run to get there everyday anyway
Words escape me everyday we pass each other by
I don't know you
But I would love to meet you
Let me show you
I think that we should
I think that we should be friends
Ooh
Think that we should be friends
We'll get drunk, laugh and tell each others fortunes
Share private jokes like we're old friends
And I'll wish this first kiss never ends, never ends
Words won't fail me every day we spend together now
Oh I don't know you
But I would love to meet you
Let me show you
How good it is to see you
I think that we should
I think that we should be friends
Ooh
Think that we should be friends
Ooh
We'll laugh about how every good song
That we sing along
They all use the same words
So we'll make up one
With beautiful women, and heartbreak, and sex
And that love, love, love
You're all I, you're all I, you're all I
You're all I, you're all I, you're all I
You're all I think about
And I don't know you
But I would love to meet you
Let me show you
How good it is to see you
I, I think that we should,
I, I think that we should,
I, I think that we should be friends
In the song "We Should Be Friends," Josh Ramsay expresses his desire to become friends with someone he sees every day but doesn't know. He admits to being nervous around this person, as evidenced by the fact that he doesn't know what to say when she smiles at him. Despite his insecurities, he still makes an effort to be near her every day, suggesting that he feels a strong attraction to her. He imagines them drinking together and telling each other's fortunes and inside jokes, and he longs for their first kiss to never end. Ramsay also references the universality of love songs and suggests that he and his potential friend could create their own unique version of such a song.
The song's gentle, soothing melody and Ramsay's sweet voice create a romantic, dreamlike atmosphere that perfectly captures the sense of longing and possibility that the lyrics express. His lyrics convey a strong sense of hope and optimism, even in the face of his own vulnerability and uncertainty.

Please destroy if you wish
"Dear Dear Betrothed"
Could be October, November, December
Let me write it down on this notebook paper
Best that you would please come over
Maybe serendiptity had us planned
Maybe destiny will take this hand
For a couple of days
Then you would appear
We should talk of where we go from here
Oh my dear dear betrothed
No not her shoulder
Let's become one
We can become one
This letter may be all I can ask of a lover
Embrace your new friend
Bring mead to bed
We will toast to where we have been
My dear dear betrothed
Oh my dear dear betrothed
I don't know how to send it
This chapter can't have perfected
No none of my plans ever depended on you
But at least tonight I could pretend
Hold me close like we would never end
We don't need balloons
But will you be my groom
You never thought of that I didn't too
My dear betrothed
No not her shoulder
Let's become one
We can become one
This letter may be all I can ask of a lover
Embrace your new friend
Bring mead to bed
We will toast to where we have been
My dear dear betrothed
Oh my dear dear betrothed
Every masterpiece we'd make anew
I could be your drop of dew
I'll cross my heart
And won't I stutter too
So dare or truth
Could I be good for you
I've had enough of being all by myself
I could be beside you in sickness and in health
For happy ever after I could be your home
And there is no place like home
I have some Tarot cards
Could I set them on the table
I'm not sure I'll be able
My dear dear betrothed.
Dear dear betrothed
Dear
Dear
Betrothed.

This song is so perfect, but honestly, I feel that way about everything Josh Ramsay writes and sings.
The song is sweet and quirky and the vocals - as always when it comes to Josh - are so flawless. I honestly believe that you have one of the best voices the music industry has ever seen, and I wish more people knew how truly spectacular you are. You're not only a talented lyricist, you're also a talented musician and a brilliant vocalist. Your range and the emotion you put into your songs never cease to amaze me.
I will 100% watch this movie just because you wrote a song for the soundtrack. And if you liked it enough to do that, I'm sure it will be worth watching.

Josh, your chest voice is amazing. The way you can transition between chest and head is honestly one of my top favourite things about your music.

Harmony Brown question from an u educated person. What's a chest voice and what's a head voice?
Lily B.
*uneducated
Harmony Brown deMelo
Terryn Song head voice is the high notes in a scale and chest voice are the lower ones. The reason why they're called that is because the head voice feels like its in your head and the chest voice feels like it sits in your chest/lower jaw.
Lily B.
Harmony Brown oooh thank you
