lyrics

I say "I won't wait around, for love, for anyone"
But when I think about it it's how I often can be found
And I damn this hopeful heart of mine
Always reading things into the times
That probably didn't mean anything at all

Yet made my heart go boom, bo-bo-boom boom
Boom bo-bo-boom boom

I don't want to be overly nostalgic
Thinking about some "good old days"
But I often worry about missing out on the moments
That will become the stories we look back on

I think maybe I just want everything too much
I never learned how to dial it down a notch
I guess maybe sometimes I come across as far too excited

But I wouldn't have it any other way
Even though sometimes it kills me
I like that my feelings are on display
And that I'm so shit at hiding them

It goes like
(boom, bo-bo-boom boom, bo-bo-boom boom)
When he looks at me
(boom, bo-bo-boom boom, bo-bo-boom boom)
When he gave me a mixtape
(boom, bo-bo-boom boom, bo-bo-boom boom)
When he stopped replying
(boom, bo-bo-boom boom, bo-bo-boom boom)
When I felt like dying
(boom, bo-bo-boom boom, bo-bo-boom boom)

I say "I won't wait around, for love, for anyone"
But when I think about it, it's how I often can be found

Optimism
by Elizabeth Morris

supported by 17 fans who also own “Maybe I Just Want Everything Too Much”

The name of this album perfectly encapsulates everything I love about Elizabeth's musical output from the Darlings to Allo Darlin' to these precious songs: an unyielding optimism that is never naive, and by being so, becomes wildly contagious. Some music tells you that "everything will be ok", but her music actually makes you believe it, even when the lyrics hint at doubt. Michael Feck
