What I Wouldn’t Do by A Fine Frenzy

This was the first song that came on shuffle while I was walking back to my room tonight. I feel like even though it’s simple and short, it says so much about being scared of falling in love but loving someone anyway. It’s just really wonderful and happy and sad. I feel like this is how my thought process works. It’s a silly and dumb but it’s cute and meaningful. This sounds like the first warm day after winter, when everything is melting and sunny but suddenly you remember.

If we were children
I would bake you a mud pie
Warm n brown beneath the sun
Never learned to climb a tree
But I would try
Just to show you what I’d done

Oh, what I wouldn’t do
If I had you, babe
I had you
Oh, what I wouldn’t do
If I had you, babe

If I were old, my dearest
You woulld be older
But I would crawl upon your lap
Wrap a blanket ‘round our frail little shoulders
And I’d die happily like that

Oh, what I wouldn’t do
If I had you, babe
If I had you
Oh, what I wouldn’t do
If I had you, babe
I had you

So laze your hands ‘round the small of my back
And I will kiss you, like a king
I will be your bride
I’ll keep you warm at night
I will sing, I will sing

It was now and we were both in the same place
I didn’t know how to say the words
With my heart ticking
Like a bomb in a birdcage
I left before someone got hurt

Cuz it was, what I wouldn’t do
I might, if I had you
It was, what I wouldn’t do
When I had you, babe
When I had you
