Lyrics:
Down in Margate, had a sip of you
And it went straight to my head
I could have opened up, cried and almost been myself
But I took the piss instead
I find it hard
Hard to be soft
Stop staying I’m perfect
Coz clearly I’m not
Just need to catch
Catch my breath
Go slowly, slowly
I know you’re not supposed to know me
But I only see it when you show me
Slowly
I’ll have to teach you how to hold me
So go on, hold me
Remember when you called us both a cab
And forgot you had your bike
And the whole way home
I thought how’s he keeping up with me
He must be really into me
As I fight
The urge to fly
I find it hard
Hard to be soft
Stop staying I’m perfect
Clearly I’m not
Just need to catch
Catch my breath
Go slowly, slowly
I know you’re not supposed to know me
But I only see it when you show me
Slowly
I’ll have to teach you how to hold me
So go on, hold me
And maybe I’ll be fine this time
And I’ll let you see me in the light
Yeah, maybe I’ll be fine

    She's not more popular because she doesn't have that juvenile high pitched out of tune fake intonation voice. She has a natural womanly, warm, soulful good singing voice. She is wonderful. I do not know much about her, but I bet she will blow up (if she has not already...again ... I don't know much about her) In Europe before here.

    Beautiful composition, Olivia. Minimal yet so effective, coming straight from the heart and reaching exactly where it should. Immensely moving! Your choice of words and the visuals is so relatable. And, the way you stared in the camera for few moments and then closed your eyes to sing those verses, it wasn't a slow burner anymore but a ballad by then. I hope your voice reaches to most distant places and touches many more hearts in it's journey, in the way it has moved mine. ❤️

I am just realizing how much your song sound like modern lullaby to me, and not only this specific one (for Baby Come Home, Crossword, Be My Own Boyfriend, too) This are stories and feelings I can identify with, sang with a such calm, soft ton. Even with your more dancing music I have this feeling of lullaby in your voice ton : i just want to calm down and listen. Congrats for your work ! Keep going, so happy to keep listening !

    I remember when I stumbled upon Billie and finneas in 2017 wondering how tf were they not blowing up and then blinking and not even a year later they went from preforming at Baltimore soundstage to Capital One arena in not even a 4 months time span. not just as a guest act but headlining a world stadium tour. Seeing how absolutely talented in every ounce of their work. The creativity. The vulnerability. The passion. The love. The individuality. So many more aspects just exuded from day one and in your own way you exude the levels of *holy fuck* that they do. I have no doubt in due time the day you get your flowers are coming and you blow up. It’s absolutely deserved and earned. You’re such a sweet and kind seeming person too from interviews and posts I’ve read from you. I truly believe in the next few years I’ll have a similar *does that say stadium tour and are those global dates?* double take moment. I can not wait to see your growth and your creativity flourish over time! Very much rooting for you! From USA with love
