about
The protagonist in 'Want You For Myself' is both the lumberjack and the big bad wolf. It was important for us to set the right atmosphere and the way the instrumentals communicate with the story. So, we planted an endless forest where the instruments are pulling you in different directions, whilst still keeping our 'Lady Silver' sound and groove.
We've also filmed our cinematic take on all this, in our very first music video: youtu.be/WW1t-lxRmPU
lyrics
Uncertainty, always gets me
Can you lose control? I know I can
Tell me, is it what I want it to be?
I like you the most when you are blunt
I’ve been in these woods for so long,
My heart’s been growing vines and moss
Guess that’s why it feels like a triumph
Could be as scary as a loss
But I found the bitter in the bittersweet
And took the bottle off the shelf
And to truthful silence I confessed
Darling, I want you for myself
I don’t want to be the bad wolf
But I can’t get you off my mind
And I’m ready - slow but steady
If we leave our comfort zones behind
Cause I want to shout it from the mountain tops
There’s a fire, ring the bells!
No more whispers in an empty room
Darling, I want you for myself
Darling, I want you for myself
I know, “take it slow”
In time you might let go
Gotta find that kind of strength
Cause I want you happy,
With or without me
But darling, I want you for myself
Darling I want you for myself
Darling I want you
Darling I want
Darling I want
