Oh well, my heart won't be around for a long long time,
If you're unkind,
To love you more than I

Oh well, my heart won't be around for a long long time,
If you're unkind,
To love you more than I
Oh well, my heart won't be around for a long long time,
If you're unkind,
To love you more than I

Oh well, my heart won't be around for a long long time,




If you're unkind,
To love you more than I

When you listen to this song, try to imagine yourself and your friends in a summer trip, one of those alternative and happy roadtrips dancing all together, maybe around a bonfire, laughing and hugging each other,
maybe at the beach in a worm night when no one else is awake, talking about your own experiences and desires, or running and singing loudly your favourite songs. That's the life you all diserve❤️
