about

Written in 2013 after The Great Gatsby movie came out. 'Nuff said.

lyrics

I remember
You were sitting beneath
The veranda
In the scorching Southern heat
The gold in your hair
Had never shone so fine
I knew in that moment
Someday you’d be mine

But how am I supposed to make you understand
When I’m feeling so far away?
My future was unbound with the touch of your hand
They say you can’t repeat the past
Why, of course you can!

Daisy, Daisy, I’m going crazy
Tell me you love me true
I’m wearing my gold hat
I’m bouncing high
I’m waiting to hear you cry:
“Lover, I must have you!”
We were walking
In the dim evening light
On the sidewalk
An hour before night
Right before my eyes
A ladder appeared
I knew if I climbed it
My prize would draw near

But how am I supposed to tell you my unspeakable dreams
When they’d perish on your mortal breath?
With just one kiss I give myself back to the Earth
I will pursue you ‘til my death
Oh…

Daisy, Daisy, I’m going crazy
Tell me you love me true
I’m wearing my gold hat
I’m bouncing high
I’m waiting to hear you cry:
“Lover, I must have you!”

And suddenly
As the party gets underway
I take you out on the floor
And to the 4/4 beat, we sway
I know you never loved him
And I don’t care if he sees
And when we rest and chat on the steps
I know you belong to me

Daisy, Daisy, I’m going crazy
Tell me you love me true
I’m wearing my gold hat
I’m bouncing high
I’m waiting to hear you cry:
“Lover, I must have you!”

I must have you
Daisy
