about

Quantifi Music are proud to present a stunning, deep, heartfelt track, produced and vocalised by EKTO1. The sound is organic in texture with piano, strings, ambient licks and skipping drums, carefully crafted and delivered from the soul. The subject matter is bitter sweet with the track spending much of the past 2 years as a simple demo in EKTO1's home studio. At the time, he was deep in the throws of an intense and turbulent relationship, making the initial creative process quick and almost cathartic. Feedback on the demo was positive and so work began to build the track into what you hear now.

lyrics

Verse 1

You see we've walked so far.
Sometimes the feeling drives us crazy.
We were running away should be coming together.
I look to you when I'm feeling alone.

Chorus:

I don't have to think about what I say to you.
Coz I know you know that we think in the same way.
Under the weather on top of the world
Looking down I see clearly with you.
And I'm lucky in the middle when I know that this feeling's true.

Verse 2:

Something was standing in the way.
Now I see it was pride and judgement.
We let ourselves go, to understand the truth.
The truth was that my heart was calling you.

[Chorus]

Bridge:

So I had to let you go.
And let you find your way.
If it means that I dine for one.
I'll do that until we're back where we begun.

[Chorus]
