In the Before Lyrics by Mackenzie Shrieve

2020

[Verse]
I’ve been dancing with you on my mind
I can’t make it back inside without passing your house
The lights on now, if I knock will you let me in?
I’ve been staring at the corner of my bed
I can’t get you out my head
It’s unlike me to overthink everything
If I knock won’t you let me in?
[Chorus]
I don’t want you to slip away
Like every other moment in this summer haze
So I’ll package up the green and blue
To hold on to you
Hold on to you
[Verse]
You’ve been playing music
Like you want me to be listening
I can hear you while you’re singing
About the girl next door
Who’s it for?
Won’t you tell me anything?
You’ve been walking this way
And then turning around
You don’t quite make it to my house
Maybe you’ve never been unsure like this before
You can tell me anything
[Chorus]
I don’t want you to slip away
Like every other moment in this summer haze
So I’ll package up the green and blue
To hold on to you
Hold on to you
[Bridge]
I don’t want another midnight dream
Of all of these “what ifs” and “maybes”
We’re more than picket fences
I just wanna dance with you
[Verse]
We’ve been talking without shutting our mouths
Finally figured it all out
Now it’ll take a lot for me to ever leave
Since I knocked and you let me in
