Slingshot by Thompson Camp Lyrics

[Intro]
Ooh
Baby, baby
You really want a friend like me?
You wanna hit the can from eighty feet?
You really want security, a little bit of trust?
You really want a friend like me?
You really wanna fly a thousand feet and never hit the ground?

[Chorus]
Pulling me back from the start
What's gonna happen if I let go (Ooh)
Hey, pulling me back from the start
What's gonna happen if I let go (Ooh)

[Verse]
I don't know what it means yet
But I like how it feels
And that ninth floor's sunswept
But the nights get real
And they won't let you open up that window
It's like they know what's here
I'd like to tell you how my thoughts work
In a way that makes sense
I wish it all worked clockwork
Wish I could lower my defense
But at the end of the day, wouldn't change anything
I'll keep it simple
I'll put down the stars
You can read the constellations
Maybe rearrange my thoughts
You can do all the explaining for me
Tell me what it means, baby
Tell me what I mean
Oh and every now and then
I just pace until I break my ankles
Tell me how to win all this aimless self-reflection
Yeah I'm missing a couple teeth
But I'm still smiling
I'm still smiling
[Chorus]
Pulling me back from the start
What's gonna happen if I let go (Ooh)
Hey, pulling me back from the start
What's gonna happen if I let go (Ooh)

[Interlude]

[Chorus]
Pulling me back from the start
What's gonna happen if I let go (Ooh)
Hey, pulling me back from the start
What's gonna happen if I let go (Ooh)

[Outro]
Might be missing a couple teeth
But I'm still smiling
But I'm still smiling
Might be missing a couple teeth
