about

‘Lemon + Lime’ is a track I’ve been working on for about 6 months. During the Covid lockdown I was living on a property in Kangaroo Valley. The space provided me with a lot of time to write music and look back on the memories made over the past years of touring and making music. The song came together a lot easier than most of my songs; it sort of just fell out. I got my mate Tim Carr down to my little studio set up I was using and we finished off the song together. The cicadas were so loud at that time of year that we had to build a soundproof booth out of blankets and cushions to record the vocals in.”

lyrics

Lately, things have been a little bit crazy
You’re the one to turn around and save me
Do that thing you do

And its true that, you’re the only one that gets through
There’s only enough room for you where you do that thing you do

Well you heat me up and cool me down
Add your spice, mix it around
Every mouthful to savour
‘Cause you’re my favourite flavour

Lemon and lime
Sugar
Green apple pie
Well you’re so sweet and so tangy at the same time

You’re on your mind, honey
Come waste your time on me
Well I want to be the one that you are taking home tonight

Baby, I been acting a little bit lazy
Come pull me out of the hazy days I spend alone (all on my own)
And would you fix me up with your medicine
One drop on the tongue and I’m back again
My darling do me a favour – save a little bit for later

Lemon and lime
Sugar
Green apple pie
Well you’re so sweet and so tangy at the same time

You’re on your mind, honey
Come waste your time on me
Well I want to be the one that you are taking home

Well you heat my up and cool me down
Add your spice, mix it around
Baby you make my head spin out
Hold me tight because I’m dizzy now
Toss me over the other side
Salt and pepper just the way I like
Nip of whiskey bring the night to life
Oh you know how to do it right

Lemon and lime
Sugar
Green apple pie
Well you’re so sweet and so tangy at the same time

You’re on your mind, honey
Come waste your time on me
Well I want to be the one
Yes, I want to be the one
Oh, I want to be the one that you are taking home
