Americana Lyrics by Jon Rivera

First Things First

2021

[Intro]
And all these things that you know, I know, I know

[Hook]
You said you don’t belong here, those eyes for an ocean view (And the moon)
And we California dreaming from a city where that’s so taboo (Taboo)
We always chased sunsets but settled on the stars and moon (And the moon)
And if I tell you ‘bout me, I hope you tell me what you’ve been through (Been through)

[Verse 1]
We are the same baby, pray for your love
Sunsets in May remind me way more of us
What’s more to say when I’ve been
Out different statе, hope I can
Show you I made it out
Can’t hold me down
You told mе hold my hand (Hold my hand)
Just follow me I'll show you golden land (Golden land)
And diamond water for a hopeless man (Just a man)
And all the these things that you know, I know, I know

[Hook]
You said you don’t belong here, those eyes for an ocean view (And the moon)
And we California dreaming from a city where that’s so taboo (Taboo)
We always chased sunsets but settled on the stars and moon (And the moon)
And if I tell you ‘bout me, I hope you tell me what you’ve been through (Been through)

[Verse 2]
I'm always chasing this high
And all the pain in my eyes
Turned cold, December came by
Those storms don’t ever break mine
Yeah I was told to make it right
King of my city, Frank White
You held it down on brake light
I learned these things take time

[Bridge]
Just take time
Hold my hand, I’ll change your life
We both made plans, don’t fade to light tonight
And tonight

[Hook]
You said you don’t belong here, those eyes for an ocean view (And the moon)
And we California dreaming from a city where that’s so taboo (Taboo)
We always chased sunsets but settled on the stars and moon (And the moon)
And if I tell you ‘bout me, I hope you tell me what you’ve been through (Been through)
