Million Bucks
Smallpools Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
They're painted like a sun without a soul
So I thought I could love nothing but the breeze here
But I fell hard for what just blew in off the coast
Stay all-in right now
Salt drips from her brow
No more days without
Makes me feel so right
We'll keep going strong
I've got all my money on you
And though my dollars are few
I feel like a million bucks
And I give no fucks when I'm with you
Got all my money on you
And though my dollars are few
I feel like a million bucks, a million bucks
I used to be a skeptic non-believer
But now it's changed, you're worth your weight in gold
The richest love ain't growing on the trees out here
But confidently, I can say I'm sold
Stay all-in right now
Salt drips from her brow
No more days without
Makes me feel so right
I can do no wrong
We'll keep going strong
I've got all my money on you
And though my dollars are few
I feel like a million bucks
And I give no fucks when I'm with you
Got all my money on you
And though my dollars are few
I feel like a million bucks, a million bucks
I feel like a million bucks
And I give no fucks when I'm with you
The ceiling's just the start
Reaching for a star
A bullseye from a dart
The ceiling's just the start
I've got all my money on you
And though my dollars are few
I feel like a million bucks
And I give no fucks when I'm with you
Got all my money on you
And though my dollars are few
I feel like a million bucks
I've got all my money on you
And though my dollars are few
I feel like a million bucks
And I give no fucks when I'm with you
Got all my money on you
And though my dollars are few
I feel like a million bucks, a million bucks
I feel like a million bucks
And I give no fucks when I'm with you
I feel like a million bucks, a million bucks

Some people say there's nothing really real here
Some people doubt the authenticity of things around here
They're painted like a sun without a soul
These things look nice on the surface but lack depth and true character
So I thought I could love nothing but the breeze here
I initially thought the only thing worth loving here was the cool wind
But I fell hard for what just blew in off the coast
But then I fell deeply in love with someone who came in from the nearby coast
Stay all-in right now
Stay committed and dedicated to the relationship in the present moment

Just found this song on Spotify, shared it with a couple friends. I feel like I need to explore this band as I've never heard them before, looking forward to the journey.

Here two years later did you ever listen to their music? Their debut album is a mid-2010s indie gem
