“I Swear This Time I Mean It” by Mayday Parade
This week’s song is “I Swear This Time I Mean It” by Mayday Parade. This song is a good love song and since Valentine’s Day is right around the corner this could provide some inspiration. This song is one of Mayday Parade’s finest. This song is just like Valentines day. It’s sweet and slow. The song was released Oct. 5, 2009 on Itunes. The band is currently is not working together anymore. They do shows here and there but they broke up on Oct. 7, 2013. Their last and fine performances was July 4.
Oh Florida, please be still tonight
Don’t disturb this love of mine
Look how she’s so serene
You’ve gotta help me out
And count the stars to form in lines
And find the words we’ll sing in time
I want to keep her dreaming
It’s my one wish, I won’t forget this
I’m outdated, overrated
Morning seems so far way
So I’ll sing a melody
And hope to God she’s listening
Sleeping softly while I sing
And I’ll be your memories
Your lullaby for all the times
Hoping that my voice could get it right
If luck is on my side tonight
My clumsy tongue will make it right
And wrists that touch
It isn’t much, but it’s enough
To form imaginary lines
Forget your scars, we’ll forget mine
The hours change so fast
Oh God, please make this last
So I’ll sing a melody
And hope to God she’s listening
Sleeping softly while I sing
And I’ll be your memories
Your lullaby for all the times
Hoping that my voice could get it right
Could get it right
You could crush me
Please don’t crush me
‘Cause baby I’m a dreamer for sure
And I won’t let you down I swear this time I mean it
