  • My heart was a hellhound
    Now my heart sits on your lap
    My hands were always clenching
    'Til I held yours and you held 'em back
    I wanted to be immortal
    Now I'm fine with growing old
    Cherries in the summer
    Blackberries in the cold

    Oh, take me back to the country, to the hills and to the spires
    I hate the afterparties, I want forests, I want fires
    Take me back to your parents, I was barefaced in the light
    You swore I looked like Audrey Hepburn that night

    I was chasing phantoms
    Always starving, never full
    Then you made me dinner
    Where there was push, now there is pull
    To you, like a magnet
    I am drawn to your bones
    'Cause love, when it's the right kind
    Well, it always points you home

    So take me back to the country, to the hills and to the spires
    I hate the afterparties, I want forests, I want fires
    Take me back to your parents, I was barefaced in the light
    You swore I looked like Audrey Hepburn that night

    Mm, mm
    Mm, mm
    Mm, mm
    Mm, mm

    Love was a myth, now it's my morning coffee
    The one you leave me by our bed
    I don't need accolades or everyone to want me
    'Cause you want me and that's as good as it gets

    So take me back to the country, to the hills and to the spires
    I'll trade the afterparties for my baby by the fire
    We'll go back to my parents, I'll be barefaced in the light
    You'll say, "You look like Audrey Hepburn tonight" Writer/s: Joseph Alan Rubel, Maisie Hannah Peters
