You Instead (The Make)
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.
He got loved on the seashore
Kissing with a girl
He never met before
Full of sparks but the dream was plenty
Jack was sixteen and Jill was just thirty or twenty
Lying down on the midnight scent
He said to give her the sky if she held his hand
she counted every star in the sky and said
I don't want that I want you instead
I want you instead (x3)
You make me feel real
Real (x3)
You make me feel real
Real (x3)
You make me feel real
She got loved on the seashore
Kissing with a boy she never met before
Full with sparks, but the dream was plenty
Jill was sixteen and Jack was just thirty or twenty
Lying down on the midnight scent
He said to give her sky if she held his hand
She counted every star in the sky and said
I don't want that I want you instead
I want you instead (x3)
You make me feel real
Real (x3)
You make me feel real
Real (x3)
You make me feel real
...
I want you instead
I want you instead
You make me feel real
Real (x3)
You make me feel real
He got loved on the seashore
real real real you make me feel real
Kissing with a girl he never met before
real real real you make me feel real
She got loved on the seashore
real real real you make me feel real
kissing with a boy she never met before
real real real real real.
