Lyrics When We're in Fitzroy - Gretta Ray

When We're in Fitzroy

Deep in uncharted water, we were at sea with the fact
That a glance over a shoulder would see us taken aback
I was hook, line and sinker nested inside your head
This sweet-toothed over thinker to your right lies in your bed
Apathy at it’s finest has got a tight hold on us
Well 'tis the season for it, the haze of summer now past
But when in the depth of winter, I say embrace the lull
Slow down, take a moment to centre and indulge
I’ll take care of you
Be the girl you want me to
Within this suburb where this little love grew
And settled in Fitzroy
My mind won’t dare to wander
When faced with what I’ve stumbled upon
A chance encounter with you, boy
Stars aligning in their rarest of forms
So let your bedroom be our port in a storm
When we’re in Fitzroy
Unashamedly hopeless romantics and desperate artist at best
Spending my time in small venues, you spend your days at a desk
When walls cave in around you, know this redeeming thought
I wait at home to greet you, I’ll treat you like you’re a God
Well I’ll take care of you
Be the girl you want me to
When we’re in Fitzroy
My mind won’t dare to wander
When faced with what I’ve stumbled upon
A chance encounter with you, boy
Stars aligning in their rarest of forms
So let your bedroom be our port in a storm
And we can let go of torturous resistance
When nothing and no one else is in existence
We’re revelling in filling the void
When we’re in Fitzroy
I’ll take care of you
Be the girl you want me to
When we’re in Fitzroy
My mind won’t dare to wander
When faced with what I’ve stumbled upon
A chance encounter with you, boy
Stars aligning in their rarest of forms
So let your bedroom be our port in a storm
And we can let go of torturous resistance
When nothing and no one else is in existence
We’re revelling in filling the void
We’re revelling in filling the void
We’re revelling in filling the void
When we’re in Fitzroy
