You’ve Already Won

[Verse 1]

Bagels in cardboard boxes, northern suburb street parking

Grocery that's vacant at 8am on a Monday morning

Hot coffee, heavy eyes, AirPods and open skies

Converse and creek trails and coming to realise

As I walk and tread and trample through the trees, mud on my ankles

There's no emotion along this path that I cannot handle

Woollen coats oversized, each thought I analyse

Cold to the point where you see it before you when you sigh

[Verse 2]

Dress-ups and dinner parties, backyards and sunburnt bodies

James Taylor vinyls and pot plants and putting off your studies

Cheese boards and blow-up pools, feminist articles

Boyfriends and tattoos and scеnted expensivе candles

Long roads and rugged coastlines, DNM's over a white wine

Sleep-ins and beach trips and losing myself in my mind

Bird watching, turning tide, tea towels and dishes dried

Siblings suppressing laughter, parents don't know why we try

[Chorus]

Breathe it in, soak it up

All it is, all at once

Ready, set, take the plunge

Being like a sponge

And breathe it in, soak it up

All it is, all at once

Ready, set, take it on

Treat it like it's gonna be gone

[Verse 3]

Front desks and boarding passes, wheels up, 12 hours 'til landing

Sunlight that cuts like a knife through the clouds into the cabin

"Bring your book to the park", pub feed before it's dark

Silk skirts and stories of co-workers' rude remarks

Downtown breakfast at a diner, "it's how you walk through the fire"

There ain't a stranger in sight that I don't somewhat admire

Museum self-guided tours, music is mine and it's yours

Whole to the point where you cannot imagine needing more

[Chorus]

Breathe it in, soak it up

All it is, all at once

Ready, set, take the plunge

Being like a sponge

And breathe it in, soak it up

All it is, all at once

Ready, set, take it on

Treat it like it's gonna be gone

[Verse 4]

Kitchen choreographed dances, sweet talk and second chances

Kiss right below your eyes, swear not to take this night for granted

Sing at the top of your lungs, dare to try everything once

It only takes looking around to know you've already won

[Chorus]

Breathe it in, soak it up

All it is, all at once

Ready, set, take the plunge

Being like a sponge

And breathe it in, soak it up

All it is, all at once

Ready, set, take it on

Treat it like it's gonna be gone

Treat it like it's gonna be gone

Treat it like it's gonna be gone

Treat it like it's gonna be gone
