It was so crazy to be working with the people we got to work with on this song,
because we dreamt of working with them.
Johnny is just the freshest man on earth.
He has a different mind.
His pants fit so good.
He did have the freshest pants that day.
[Em] [N] Usually we plan out the days we're going to record the song, but writing is different.
We had five studios going every day,
so some of us would be in one studio, some of us would be in one studio.
It depends.
Zach would be here,
Dan would be in another room, I'll be playing basketball.
We probably made like, we literally probably made 70 songs.
Yeah, it actually felt
It's pretty darn hard.
You know me the best, you know my worst, see me hurt, but you don't judge.
That right there is the scariest feeling.
You don't have anything to hide behind anymore.
All your secrets, all your, all the juicy stuff.
Opening and closing up again, I've been hurt so I don't trust.
When something drastic like that happens to you emotionally,
it's hard to let another person in to that same space.
Normal instincts would say, don't let that happen again.
So it's a process of saying, no, this is someone completely different.
And this [Bb] isn't the same situation.
[Gb] You're talking about kind of the past and your [F] feelings of maybe meeting
and the early on beginnings of a relationship.
Just trying to get a vibe for each other and [Ab] understand who they are as a person.
If this is someone you really want to attach yourself to or not.
I mean, those are crazy conversations to have.
[A] I mean, it was the past.
You were young.
You know what I mean?
Like, you were young when you said it.
Everybody's done it.
It's obviously a lie.
I mean, you don't know it at the time.
When you lose them, you're like, why did I say I love you?
It's like, it just didn't mean anything to me.
[N] When you think that you just want to say that to her so many times,
it just means that she just means that much to you.
It stands for I love you.
Someone could hear it and perceive it differently and be like,
it means fart face.
Fart face is a good one.
It's hard to call someone a fart face.
Why am I overthinking this?
Why am I struggling so hard to say this?
I'll get super needy and I'm like, dang it, come here.
And then I'm like, wait, nevermind.
Corbin posted this Instagram picture.
It was so fire.
He took three pictures of himself and he was in his own way.
And then he posted the lyrics.
You found the one.
You know, you guys match perfectly.
And I feel like even if you haven't found the one,
everyone has that girl or that guy that they go to, you know,
or that they think about.
There's that person that I was talking about that is just perfect in your eyes
and you think it's perfect for you.
But it's always a case where they don't feel the same way to you.
Or maybe they do and you don't know because you haven't spoke your mind.
And so that's just kind of what that's on is like,
I need to just man up, man.
I need to just do it, man.
Personally for me, I love love in general.
Like I love being in love.
It's such a powerful feeling to [Em] me.
So when you have someone super close to you like that,
I think it's a really special thing.
