This is the title track off my debut album, Friends First which will be released March 22nd, 2024. I wrote this song in Puerto Escondido, Mexico in a very reverby room on the beach. I had just moved into a hotel-like apartment and used a Kaotica Eyeball on the mic to stop all the sound from bleeding. This is the first song I'm releasing that I fully wrote and produced myself. It came together in a few days, weeks after I had met her. However its come to mean so much more than just this relationship, I wrote the song as well only a few weeks after my dad had passed away. Every time I come back to listen, my heart is pulled toward memories of him as well, as the lyrics say in the end, "Before that end comes and you damaged, Breathe me in" which I feel is more an homage to him then the relationship. - Julian Roy

Lyrics :

Ill give my heart to you
Wont you come see this through
Give you my time
Every minute
Yeah Not just for awhile
Life line
I swear
I got my heart to give
To you

She said hold up
Wait a minute got me choked up
I been thinking
On the way
That you hold yourself daily
Got me really working my patience

I really wanna jump in
Head first
You keep saying
Calm down
Friends First
But the feeling you been letting off lately
You the queen im searching for baby, amazing

Ill give my heart to you
Wont you come see this through
Give you my time
Every minute
Yeah Not just for awhile
Life line
I swear
I got my heart to give
To you

Now we talking every night
Every morning
Work it out
We never fight
Just enjoying
Gotta say i want this life
Forever more
Yeah you hear me right
I want this life
Its never boring

I really wanna jump in
Head first
You keep saying
Calm down
Friends First
But the feeling you been putting off lately
You the queen im looking for baby, amazing

Ill give my heart to you
Wont you come see this through
Give you my time
Every minute
Yeah Not just for awhile
Life line
I swear
I got my heart to give
To you

Before that end comes and you damaged
Before that end comes and you wait on me
Breathe me in

Before that end comes and you damaged
Before that end comes and you wait on me
Breathe me in
Breathe me in
Breathe

Before that end comes and you damaged
Before that end comes and you wait on me
Breathe me in
