[Verse 1]
The sand is everywhere it seems
I can't get that stuff off my feet
You say something that makes me laugh
For a second, thought you had my heart
The dewy mist, it cools my lips
Your jumper’s good for days like this
I know that we both want it, mmm

[Chorus]
If I could stay, you know I would
I like it here deep in the woods
But we know that it won't last long
It feels so good to have someone

[Post-Chorus]
I'll see you
I’ll catch you 'round
I'll see you
I have to be somewhere else

[Verse 2]
Shadow of a tree
Falling of the leaves
So peacefully we lie
Watching stars as they shoot by
As the waves roll out
I stay at your house
You roll your curtains down
Bliss surrounds us now

[Chorus]
If I could stay, you know I would
I likе it here deep in the woods
But wе know that it won't last long
It feels so good to have someone

[Post-Chorus]
I'll see you
I'll catch you 'round
I'll see you
I have to be somewhere else

[Bridge]
Ooh, oh-oh, mm
Ooh, oh-oh-oh
Ooh, oh-oh
Ooh, oh-oh-oh

[Post-Chorus]
I’ll see you
I’ll catch you 'round
I’ll see you
I have to be somewhere else

BENEE

Stella Rose Bennett (born 30 January 2000), known professionally as BENEE (formerly Bene), is a New Zealand singer-songwriter who debuted in December 2017 with “Tough Guy.” Music had always been part of her life, with a family history in theatre. BENEE’s first instrument was a saxophone, playing it for several years, along with the guitar.

BENEE started posting music to Soundcloud in her final year of high school (2017), catching the attention of producer Josh Fountain. The pair went on the work together in several of her singles, including break-out single “Soaked” which was featured on triple j’s hottest 100 (2018).

After spending two weeks in a communications course at the Auckland Institute of Technology, Benee realised she wanted to be making music full-time.
