Ahead of Myself Lyrics

Don't wanna get ahead of myself
But isn't this grand?
Don't wanna make a fool of myself
Is it already planned?
There you go making promises
You're never gonna keep
Don't wanna get ahead of myself
I'm already in too deep

Don't wanna get ahead of myself
But isn't this swell?
Don't wanna make a fool of myself
Like a clown I just fell
There you go making promises
You really shouldn't say
Don't wanna get ahead of myself
I think I just found the way

If you dig a little deeper
Way down into your soul
You may find a way to sweep her off her feet
Let the evening come and go

Don't wanna get ahead of myself
But isn't she fine?
Don't wanna make a fool of myself
Like she's already mine
There you go making promises
You never should've thought
Don't wanna get ahead of myself
I think that I've just been caught

Oh if you dig a little deeper
Way way way way down into your soul
You may find a way to sweep her off her feet
Oh let the evening come and go

Didn't wanna get ahead of myself
I think I just did
Didn't wanna make a fool of myself
Like a love-struck idiot kid
There I go making promises
I never could've kept
Didn't wanna get ahead of myself

And then I learned
If you dig a little deeper
Way way way way down into your soul
Oh you may find
A way to sweep her off her feet
Let the evening let the evening come and go

If you dig a little deeper
Way way way way down into your soul
Oh you may find
A way to sweep her off her feet
Oh let the evening let the evening come and go

I get ahead of myself

I get ahead of myself

You may find
I get ahead of myself

What is the Meaning of Ahead of Myself?

Diving headfirst into love can be a thrilling, if slightly embarrassing, Olympic sport. In Jamie Lawson's tune, our lovestruck protagonist is all too eager to leap before looking, painting a picture of someone who’s perpetually tripping over his own heartstrings. Each verse sees him making grand promises and daydreaming about happily-ever-afters—only to realize he might just be building castles in the air. It’s a charming cautionary tale wrapped in melody, reminding us that while it's good to dig deep and find courage, sometimes you've got to let the evening unfold naturally instead of scripting it like a Hollywood romance.
