Idling by, the trees in a line, I lower myself from my seat. You turn the spokes before I turn to speak, A moment flows by. It's high time you looked back On the highlight of a good track, it's time. Counting the gravel that flies from your wheel, my mouth tasting of dust, You learnt to trust the same old gears and rust And now you turn your heel. It's high time you looked back On the highlight of a good track, it's time.

I could never make you feel as sexy as you ought to feel, I wish I saw someone hot, not warm. And when I drop you off with him, it makes me as miserable as sin, I wish I knew if I should tell you the truth. And all my life I find I'm being left behind you. I know that it would be a mistake, but I see you every time I'm awake And it's so hard trying not to go too far. And every time I see your face I say a little silent grace, Something must be wrong, I guess I'll play along. And all my life I find I'm being left behind you. You and I are like a circle, We have no point or place to be. And we just keep going round and round.

I never know where to put my hands, You always seem to understand, It's me, it's me. We're shoulder to shoulder on the couch, You pull a blanket around ourselves And I feel so body conscious with you around. Every minute I spend with you I'm nervously looking for something to do, It's me, it's me. We're shoulder to shoulder on the couch You pull a blanket around ourselves And I feel so body conscious with you around. I guess I only feel this way Because I've got something to say To you, it's you. Love can do stupid things, I'm a wreck but I gotta sing For you, it's you. We're shoulder to shoulder on the couch You pull a blanket around ourselves And I feel so body conscious with you around And I feel so body conscious with you around.

Hey WHWU? 02:22
Every time I get a buzzing in my leg I hope it must be you, It always seems to be somebody's birthday When I'm waiting on you to say Hey, what's happening with you? Don't you know I've nowhere to be? Please send a message, I'm feeling free. I'm always available, I stay online in case you want to chat, My social media platform runs all the time And I'm hoping you'll drop a line Hey, what's happening with you? Don't you know I've nowhere to be? Please send a message, I'm feeling free.

about

Deej Cooper Dunedin, New Zealand

Deej writes reflective, low tempo folk-esque songs and Tim improves them with delicate and precise orchestrations.

They both met in Dunedin, NZ at a party that neither was likely to go to and immediately decided to write an album together. A year later they released it to wild acclaim, star-studded award ceremonies and over-sensationalised artist bios.
