Tommy Lefroy - Mortals

To Rate
Verse 1
You laugh beside me
You needed this coffee
Your legs are too long for my passenger seat
And your brother's a dropout
You thought about giving up on science
In pursuit of higher thinking

Chorus
And my heart gets ahead of me always, always
Talking in verses to me always, always
You'll never live up to the myth that I made of you

Verse 2
My bones and veins had to learn to be brave
You would lie with Goliath to have it both ways
And all of my friends thought that you'd stick around
You sounded so great

Chorus
But you're just a boy with a biblical name
And my heart gets ahead of me always, always
I'd give you thе benefit always
You'll nevеr live up to the myth that I made of you

Outro
Nothing's forever
I've got to live without too
Hmm, hmm
Hmm, hmm
Hmm, hmm
