about

"Headstrong (I Told You So)" is a single from Ethan Lumus' second album.

lyrics

You're leaving this town, got dreams to fulfil
You say it like somebody who never will
Got blood on my lip, but a full set of teeth
And god as my witness I'll make you believe

How will you know you're breathing
Until your chest is heaving?
Give me your hand, I promise
I'm never gonna drop it

Come and dance in a hurricane with me
Seventeen but we're getting old quickly
Take a risk let me see you give it a go
Promise me that you won’t fold (no no)
Keeping clean never won you much status
So legit, why you acting embarrassed?
Take a risk if you wanna go where I go
I won’t say I told you so (no no)

I'll take the fall if you’ll take the wheel
Who even cares if the coast isn’t clear
Let’s take off our tops and run from the cops
The thrill of the chase will be worth getting caught

How will you know you're breathing
Until your chest is heaving?
Give me your hand, I promise
I'm never gonna drop it

Come and dance in a hurricane with me
Seventeen but we're getting old quickly
Take a risk let me see you give it a go
Promise me that you won’t fold (no no)
Keeping clean never won you much status
So legit, why you acting embarrassed?
Take a risk if you wanna go where I go
I won’t say I told you so (no no)

Foolhardy, headstrong
For a good time, not for long
Hot summer all year
You're a long time dead, my dear
Foolhardy, headstrong
For a good time, not for long
Do you trust me? Be honest
Tell me that you won’t drop this
1, 2, 3, drop

Come and dance in a hurricane with me
Seventeen but we're getting old quickly
Take a risk let me see you give it a go
Promise me that you won’t fold (no no)
Keeping clean never won you much status
So legit, why you acting embarrassed?
Take a risk if you wanna go where I go
I won’t say I told you so (no no)
