about

This is my very first release, and I'm so excited for you to hear it--it's been a long journey to get here. Blinked originally started out as a funny song--"Haha, I think about this person literally all of the time, and this happened out of nowhere! Isn't that hilarious?"--until I realized it was in fact, sad. This song's about not realizing how you feel about somebody until it's a little too late, and letting that "scare the hell" out of you (per the bridge). I sincerely hope you love it, and that you'll follow along with me on this musical journey :)

Of course, huge thank you to RaeAnna VanDemark, my producer, and all the musicians:

Cello: Torri Wedinger
Violin: Emily Garcia
Viola: Patrick Monnius
Drums: Christopher Volzke
E. Guitar: RaeAnna VanDemark
Acoustic Guitar, Vox: Grace O'Shea

lyrics

Somewhere along this winded path we walked along
Something changed for me
Opened my eyes to what was going on
Made me question everything
The touch, the brush of your hand in mine
It feels like more than just my friend
I'm over-analyzing all the words you say and all the time we spend
But the crazy thing is I didn't see it happening

I guess I blinked and woke up in this dream
Where you've become my everything
And try as I might to subdue
I find that I cannot deny
Your ever-presence in my mind
And I just wanna be with you
I guess I blinked
I guess I blinked
I guess I blinked
Yeah

When I'm with you, it feels like we're alone
No matter where we are or where we go
But the crazy thing is I didn't even see it happening

I guess I blinked and woke up in this dream
Where you've become my everything
And try as I might to subdue
I find that I cannot deny
Your ever-presence in my mind
And I just wanna be with you
I guess I blinked
I guess I blinked
I guess I blinked
Yeah

Well the way I feel about you scares the hell out of me
Cuz I don't know where it leads
Yeah the way I feel about you scares the hell out of me
Cuz I don't know where it leads
You turn me into who I'm meant to be and that's frightening
It's so frightening

That I blinked and woke up in this dream
Where you've become my everything
And try as I might to subdue
I find that I cannot deny
Your ever-presence in my mind
And I just wanna be with you
I guess I blinked
I guess I blinked
I guess I blinked
Yeah
