Lyrics:

Nobody
Would ever have guessed we'd be homebuddies
Or that you even would be somebody
To someone you barely knew like me

Like me
Like me
Like me

I met you
Through a mutual friend
Oh, we were introduced
All I knew was you liked Doctor Who
I guess that was good enough for me

For me
For me
For me

I wanna play that
Like a snow-baked thing
I couldn't say that
'Cuz this ain't just a fling
I wanna know you
Like the back of my hand
I gotta show you
The person I really am

We'll make our own world
Where we can run away
To where it's all play
All day
Yeah yeah yeah

[Scatting]

You called me
Just seconds before I tried to
Make my plea
For you to entertain this
Fantasy
So glad to know that it was
Not just me

Just me
Just me
Just me

Now you're here
We're sharing together in these golden years
And though our lives have many hopes and fears
I'll be there with you and me

You and me
You and me
You and me
You and me

(Mwah!)

Artist commentary:

Michael Guy Bowman: (Bandcamp about blurb)

Kickstarter reward for Julian Low (dedicated to Sarah), 2012

Michael Guy Bowman: (SoundCloud description) captured 7/27/2015

New commission: a love letter from fundraiser backer Julian Low to his girlfriend Sarah. In it I recount the story of their relationship as Julian recounted it to me.

This track is so saccharine that I was almost too embarrassed to upload it. It's based around a sketch I wrote back in 2009 which just laid around on my computer as "sandpaper.flp" for the longest time. Now it's got me doing scat on it.

Hope you enjoy it, Sarah! Julian cares for you deeply and I hope it comes across in this song.
