Tread Lightly Lyrics by Mack Keane

Donna Ave

2019

Verse 1:
Fightin' fire so I goosed up
I laid down til I felt nothin
Legs crossed like a buddha
Findin' self love on a futon
Shoes up
I hate how you're so lovely
God damn you were somebody
Put a letter with your name in my notebook
I gotta say you got me fallin' all over

Pre-hook:
Oh I feel like seventeen with you, with you
All things, they were faded from my youth, my youth

Hook:
But you can't find me
You can't find me
Tread real lightly
Tread real lightly
You can't find me
You can't find me
Tread real lightly
Tread real lightly
Tread, oh

Verse 2:
Thinkin' 'bout the way you move your body
Shit is so lovely
With a new girl but she ain't nobody
'Cause you my somebody
Photographs still on my phone
Bittersweet but I can't hold on
Hold on
Shit's harder now we're livin' on our own

Pre-hook:
I miss your head laid in my hands (my hands, my hands)
Still you look at me like we still got some plans, some plans

Hook:
But you can't find me
You can't find me
Tread real lightly
Tread real lightly
You can't find me
You can't find me
Tread real lightly
Tread real lightly
Tread, oh

Bridge:
Who, who cares for you now? You now...
Said who, who cares for you now? You now...

Hook:
'Cause you won't find me
You won't find me
Tread real lightly
Tread real lightly
You won't find me
You won't find me
I tread real lightly
Tread real lightly
Tread, oh
