    Lyrics:
    Down in Margate, had a sip of you
    And it went straight to my head
    I could have opened up, cried and almost been myself
    But I took the piss instead
    I find it hard
    Hard to be soft
    Stop staying I’m perfect
    Coz clearly I’m not
    Just need to catch
    Catch my breath
    Go slowly, slowly
    I know you’re not supposed to know me
    But I only see it when you show me
    Slowly
    I’ll have to teach you how to hold me
    So go on, hold me
    Remember when you called us both a cab
    And forgot you had your bike
    And the whole way home
    I thought how’s he keeping up with me
    He must be really into me
    As I fight
    The urge to fly
    I find it hard
    Hard to be soft
    Stop staying I’m perfect
    Clearly I’m not
    Just need to catch
    Catch my breath
    Go slowly, slowly
    I know you’re not supposed to know me
    But I only see it when you show me
    Slowly
    I’ll have to teach you how to hold me
    So go on, hold me
    And maybe I’ll be fine this time
    And I’ll let you see me in the light
    Yeah, maybe I’ll be fine

    Beautiful composition, Olivia. Minimal yet so effective, coming straight from the heart and reaching exactly where it should. Immensely moving! Your choice of words and the visuals is so relatable. And, the way you stared in the camera for few moments and then closed your eyes to sing those verses, it wasn't a slow burner anymore but a ballad by then. I hope your voice reaches to most distant places and touches many more hearts in it's journey, in the way it has moved mine. ❤️

    She's not more popular because she doesn't have that juvenile high pitched out of tune fake intonation voice. She has a natural womanly, warm, soulful good singing voice. She is wonderful. I do not know much about her, but I bet she will blow up (if she has not already...again ... I don't know much about her) In Europe before here.

    Your voice harmonies are always beautiful ! And those soul vibes each time, so great ! I am just realizing how much your song sound like modern lullaby to me, and not only this specific one (for Baby Come Home, Crossword, Be My Own Boyfriend, too) This are stories and feelings I can identify with, sang with a such calm, soft ton. Even with your more dancing music I have this feeling of lullaby in your voice ton : i just want to calm down and listen. Congrats for your work ! Keep going, so happy to keep listening !
