Ever seen A Lot Like Love (2005)? Yeah, the one with Ashton Kutcher. Well, let's just say I've lived through something surprisingly similar. Two people, feelings that never quite lined up, and timing that apparently had a personal problem with us. ㅤ Fate? Coincidence? Or just two people with the worst scheduling skills in romantic history? 😅 ㅤ [VERSE] You wore a ring by the blue light glow Standing beside someone I came to know He kept your world from falling apart So I stayed silent and played my part I could've chased what I couldn't claim Could've turned love into a selfish game But some stars shine in another sky And loving you meant letting you fly ㅤ [CHORUS] Every time your heart was finally ready for me Mine was holding another that night Every time my heart was finally ready for you Yours was holding another that night ㅤ [CHORUS] Every time your heart was finally ready for me Mine couldn't see your eyes resting on me Every time your heart was finally ready for me Mine couldn't feel yours resting on me ㅤ [CHORUS] Every time my heart was finally ready for you Yours couldn't see my eyes resting on you Every time my heart was finally ready for you Yours couldn't feel mine resting on you ㅤ [CHORUS] Every time your heart was finally ready for me Mine was holding another that night Every time my heart was finally ready for you Yours was holding another that nightmore

Influenced by—yet distinct from—Nik Kershaw’s Dancing Girls, and driven by the modern indie-pop energy of Tom Grennan, "Drop the Act" is the new single from Rick Payne Inc.
