Pet Names 02:18
I still want you baby I still need you honey Why can’t I have you darling I still love you sweetheart Going to work, getting in just on time Making it through thinking of you 9 to 5 The bells almost toll but good times can’t roll when you’re not mine A love once deferred is making its way through my mind For what it’s worth For what it’s worth This might hurt but For what it’s worth I still want you baby I still need you honey Why can’t I have you darling I still love you sweetheart All the lies we told ourselves Rattle chains of endless thought like ghosts I hope you know The summer that you’re living in Won’t convince a westside therapist You’re wearing clothes So you should know I still want you baby I still need you honey Why can’t I have you darling I still love you sweetheart

Here we go again I’m getting lost A heart deferred shouldn’t hurt this bad Hey hey hey You don’t love me anymore You don’t say my name in your sleep but I’m still dreaming, I’m still dreaming You don’t love me anymore You lie, between someone else’s sheets And I’m still dreaming, I’m still dreaming About you All about you You think it’s all about you It’s always been about you Know that I was set up from the start The moment that you turned away Was when you had my heart Don’t wanna love you anymore I call out your name in my sleep Cause I’m still dreaming, I’m still dreaming Gotta get you outta my head Want someone else in my sheets But I’m still dreaming, still dreaming About you All about you You think it’s all about you It’s always been about you Don’t wanna love you anymore We reconnect before I’m free So I’m back to dreaming Always dreaming Gotta get you outta my head Haunted by a lack of memory So I’m still dreaming, always dreaming About you All about you You think it’s all about you This ain’t all about you

Guess it started when I was a simple little kid Always looking for acceptance And then you turned me down Running back the time on my wristwatch A challenge always gets me going Then you saw that I was dedicated And you had me for a summer But you chose to focus on when it would end Contemplating, ruminate on All the ways I needed you All the ways I needed you All the signs that I never heeded I can’t remember when I didn’t have a fear of not being wanted But I have done just that There’s still a little kid Rebelling against his inner nature Forgetting all that might be good in it The realization we were predicated On some long unfinished business Made me keep my focus on Making amends Contemplating, ruminate on All the ways I needed you All the ways I needed you All the signs that I never heeded Turn me around Oh I get turned around Turn me around Oh I’m all turned around

Speak 01:20
Say what you will, say what you might If I see both sides of your face in a few months time I’ll be looking at the freckles that have formed under your eyes Do they understand what it meant to be gone or have they learned to live with an inconsiderate sun who doesn’t really care what your lips have done Come back again I hope you come back again hope you come back again hope you come back to me, love

about

all the songs I never wrote you drops you into an uncomfortable, not-so-casual interaction on the city streets, with two former something-or-another deciding to take a walk. Themes of longing, self-centeredness, and unrealistic self-perception are touched upon in this catchy, cheeky debut release for J Bengoy.
