Grateful
Luke Brown Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

i must confess
i’ve got regrets
i could have more but i could have less
and the more that i know the less i think I know

i get stressed out
yeah i get overwhelmed
i’m always worrying about my health

but the answer to all the big shit
is hidden in all the small print

let’s go for a walk take a deep breath
all of the flowers are out for you and me babe
it doesn’t have to be painful
i wanna tell you i’m grateful

let’s go for a drive hit the seaside
i swear it only exists just for you and I
well if i’m gonna die
i might as well fucking try to live my life

my sister moved
to london in the fall
to find whatever she was looking for but
she’s moving back to the north now cos
her friends all fucking adore her

i miss my house
i miss my family home




i still remember that landline phone
that number’s burnt in my brain i’ll never let it go
