about

The first moment of reflection that is truly sung rather than spoken, this song is describing a Grecian village I’ve sung so much about wanting love, but this is me verbalizing what I’d like after I receive it. There’s a fig tree on the small home my dad inherited and I dream to one day bring my love to the homeland. There are painted scenes of the town, saying that it’s hard to tell what’s real after we’ve been scarred, but that it’s possible to find peace and love from another person.

lyrics

Scorching sun, gravel roads
A simple life could be all we know
The sea so clear
Like where the mountains meet the sky
We'd be happy here
Either dead or alive

Would you be so kind, as to fall in love with me?
Standing in the shade, underneath the fig tree
When hearts are scarred it's hard to gauge exactly how you feel
But baby I'm sold that all of this is real

A marketplace filled with merchants
A tiny church next door
Where the minutes turn to hours and time doesn't matter anymore
Bugs that sing, bells that ring in the distance
No sound compares, no worries or cares
Just your searing skin and mine

Would you be so kind, as to fall in love with me?
Standing in the shade, underneath the fig tree
When hearts are scarred it's hard to gauge exactly how you feel
But baby I'm sold that all of this could be real

Would you be so kind?
Would you be so kind?
Would you be so kind?
Would you be so kind?
Would you be so kind?
Would you be so kind?
Would you be so kind?
Would you be so kind?
Would you be so kind?
Would you be so kind?
Would you be so kind?
Would you be so kind?
