EARLY V4V release! ⚡🎶🎧

‘Strangers To Lovers’ was written with Vinnie Paolizzi when I was in Nashville last August. We spent most of the writing session catching up on what had happened since we last saw each other in 2018. When we finally got round to writing, we came up with this tune in a few minutes, one of of the easiest co-writes I’ve had thus far. I wanted to do an acoustic version of the tune to showcase the lyric and story, so took it to the talented James Wyatt at Sloe Flower Studio and explained, I didn’t want anything fancy, I just wanted something real. We talked for a while about influences and soon discovered we were both big fans of Dave Cobb, Jason Isbell and that school of classic production / songwriting. I know this track will make it on the next album, which I will hopefully be recording later this year. But it’s been a while since I released anything and wanted to put this song out there the way I play it live. This will be in the set as well as other new songs on my tour with Carter Sampson which starts this Friday! Hope you enjoy the new tune and hopefully catch you at a show

LYRICS

I could’ve stayed in, gone left instead of right

Or done a thousands things, instead of meeting you that night

You could’ve called a friend, you could’ve called it quits

You could’ve walked home before midnight hit

But you didn't

It happened in a minute and you almost passed me by

I was holding the door when you threw me a smile

Life's twists and turns left us where we began

We went from strangers to lovers, and back to strangers again

It can all change, so damn fast

Our future plans, became the past

What I miss the most, it don’t sound like much

But it's calling your number and you picking up

It only took an hour of an ordinary night

For you to steal you my heart, without even trying

Life's twists and turns left us where we began

We went from strangers to lovers and now we’re strangers again

(Instrumental)

It took about a year to know it wasn't right

I didn't want to change, you didn't want to fight

Life's twists and turns left us where we began

We went from strangers to lovers and back to strangers again

From strangers to lovers and now we're strangers again
