Description
"Save Your Money," the second track on Black Light Doves, was written to be the single of the record. Mike sat down with a box of Mike and Ikes and scribbled out the lyrics in 5 minutes. The result has hints of early Elvis and the soundtrack from "That Thing You Do." The band hoped with this song they could reach a wider audience with the theme of falling in love in everyday circumstance.
Lyrics
She laughs at a joke told by your friend Something has changed though you don’t know when It’s then that you realize 'man I love this girl' Randomly one night you were bored So you make a midnight run to the store Suddenly you realize 'man I love this girl' Why try to hide it deny it when you know that it’s true The only thing you can think about is does she feel the same for you So you save your money for Friday night For Italian food and the candlelight Paper plates and small talk 'man I love this girl' Well you call a cab in the pouring rain You run for cover as she drives away It’s then that you realize 'man I love this girl' It’s then that you realize 'I love her'
