Lyrics

Ahead of Yourself

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I never really go on many second dates

I know I told you that and now we're on the eighth

Don't worry, I'm not getting carried away

(Don't get so ahead of yourself)

So what? I've told you things I don't normally, yeah

After a couple drinks, I tend to overshare

And I regret it when I'm sober, I swear

(Don't get so ahead of yourself)

Just because I wanna see you more doesn't mean that I'm fallin'

I don't need to buy a white dress, baby

I don't want to hear the wedding bells, wedding bells

I'm not askin' you to meet my family (Family)

Don't get so ahead

Won't be pickin' out the names of children

I'm not lookin' for a millionaire fairytale

You could tell 'em all that we're just chillin' (Chillin')

Don't get so ahead of yourself

Okay, I told you were in my dream

I guess that maybe came across a little keen

I'm not as crazy as it probably seems

(Don't get so ahead of yourself)

Well, maybe you could be the one I'm searchin' for

'Cause I'll admit I've never felt like this before

But I'm not sayin' that I'm certain, I'm sure

(Don't get so ahead of yourself)

Just 'cause I get chilly when I talk doesn't mean that I'm fallin'

I don't need to buy a white dress, baby

I don't want to hear the wedding bells, wedding bells

I'm not askin' you to meet my family (Family)

Don't get so ahead

Won't be pickin' out the names of children

I'm not lookin' for a millionaire fairytale

You could tell 'em all that we're just chillin' (Chillin')

Don't get so ahead of yourself

So why you gotta go and get?

Ah, why you gotta go and get?

Why you, why you gotta go and get so?

Don't get so ahead of yourself

So why you gotta go and get?

Ah, why you gotta go and get?

Why you, why you gotta go and get so?

Don't get so ahead of yourself

Just because I wanna see you more

Just 'cause I get chilly when I talk

Just 'cause I wrote you a fuckin' song doesn't mean that I'm fallin'

I don't need to buy a white dress, baby

I don't want to hear the wedding bells, wedding bells

Not askin' you to meet my family (Family)

Don't get so ahead

Won't be pickin' out the names of children

I'm not lookin' for a millionaire fairytale

You could tell 'em all that we're just chillin' (Chillin')

Don't get so ahead of yourself

So why you gotta go and get?

Ah, why you gotta go and get?

Why you, why you gotta go and get so?

Don't get so ahead of yourself

So why you gotta go and get so?

Ah, why you gotta go and get so?

Why you, why you gotta go and get so?

Don't get so ahead of yourself
