Arkells - Savannah lyrics

Before we ever had any hard decisions Before we ever had any rule of law Savannah would laugh at me in her room at her parents' house And time how fast it'd take to take off her bra And she was named after, she was named after her dad's favourite city I was named after, I was named after the fact, oh yeah Savannah, tell me what you had in mind Savannah, this wait is only multiplying Before we ever had any hard decisions Before she pulled me from my seat at the bar Savannah would ramble on about ancient traditions She said “I don't need no minister to give you my heart” But her sisters kept saying these games that he's playing, you'll always be waiting She called me a gentleman And she's once, twice, three times a lady Savannah, tell me what you had in mind Savannah, this wait is only multiplying Baby you can't lift us, at least you're trying I'll keep running and you'll keep fighting Savannah, tell me what you had in mind My phone rings and I see you're calling It's a picture of you on a day you were smiling You always think that it's time that I'm buying Think I am, just a minute I'm deciding [?] So I leave the bar and it's freezing cold You say “You always go out and I'm always alone And this song and dance, it gets pretty old The love of my life talk is what I've been sold” I know I let you down a million times, I let you down a million times But don't it feel like we're just scraping by, feels like we're just scraping by I know I let you down a million times, I know I let you down a million times But don't it feel like we're just scraping by, feels like we're just scraping by Savannah, tell me what you had in mind Savannah, this wait is only multiplying Savannah Oo oo oo oo... Savannah Ohhhhhhhhh
