8 Months

8 Months — cover art

About this song

They said goodbye on a Friday, laughing like they weren't ending. Different cities, different daylight ahead — but the feeling stayed: "You're the love of my life." So instead of a clean break, a promise: I'll call you in eight months, to see if you want to build a home. A song about holding the line between growing up and holding on.

Lyrics

We said goodbye on Friday Laughing like we weren't ending You said "You're the love of my life" And I felt it too Baby, you're mine Yeah. we talk about our big plans Baby Different city, different daylight Maybe You say "If it's meant it'll be" But I'm not that good with "maybe" We read our letters We're running out of time I wanna pull you closer Before we say goodbye I don't wanna wait a year to love you I don't wanna wait a year to hold you close I don't wanna wait a year to love you So I'll call you in eight months To see if you wanna build a home (Oh-ooh) I don't wanna wait I don't wanna wait this long (Oh-ooh) Save me a space If you still feel this strong (oh yeah) Oh yeah We kept it light, no pressure I laughed but my chest felt heavy Screen glows in the dark at midnight Typing out your name, then I change my mind Our old photos I cannot look at yet Without me wanting to go back And live life like we used to do Darling I got used to you But we're living in a new phase We're learning how stay Much better in line with ourselves But I'm dreaming of that day I don't wanna wait a year to love you I don't wanna wait a year to hold you close I don't wanna wait a year to love you So I'll call you in eight months To see if you wanna build a home (Oh-ooh) I don't wanna wait I don't wanna wait this long (Oh-ooh) Save me a space If you still feel this strong (yeah, yeah) We hold the line Protect the past Oh baby it all went by so fast But when I say your name Oh it still feels like right I still feel like you are the love of my life I don't wanna wait a year to love you I don't wanna wait a year to hold you close I don't wanna wait a year to love you So I'll call you in eight months To see if you wanna build a home (Oh-ooh) I don't wanna wait I don't wanna wait this long (Oh-ooh) Save me a space If you still feel this strong (oh-oh) If you steel feel this Oh If you steel feel this If you steel feel this
