BUCKLE UP

A romantic pop ballad featuring Josh Groban and Ben Platt style vocals. The title serves as a metaphor for the emotional and physical sensation one might experience when falling in love with someone “too fast” and the inevitable crash that accompanies any star-crossed encounter. It’s a song for those who have ever felt lost in the wake of heartbreak or who may be searching for a “hopeless romantic” kind of vibe.


Piano: Cass DiFonte, Cover Art: Tim Eterno

"By the end of Buckle Up, I found myself wrapped in a quiet storm of emotion, haunted by its honesty, consoled by its courage, and humbled by its grace."

LISTEN HERE

I met you last night at the rooftop bar

You were standing on the side looking up at the stars

I asked you what you were searching for

You said, “I don’t know yet"


Well that struck a chord in my heart

We began to talk about the city and art

You cracked a smile, I let down my guard

Baby, buckle up, cause now this train wreck starts


Cause I’m falling, falling

For your touch

It’s a rush

And I’m falling, falling

For your touch

It’s a rush


Now we’re listening to Taylor in your beat up car

And I’m thinking to myself, could this be evermore?

I tell you I can be the one that you’re searching for

You say, “I don’t want that.”


But then you pull me close and you grab my hand

And you tell me I’m the only one who understands

This train called life doesn’t always go as planned

So buckle up, it’s getting hard to stand


Now I’m falling, falling

For your touch

But you’re too much

And I’m falling, falling

For your touch

But you’re too much


In a couple of years in your retrograde

You’ll hear this song and wish you’d stayed

Star crossed love always ends in vain

But the ghost of us will haunt this train


Now I’m standing on my own at the rooftop bar

I look up to the sky and I see the stars

I haven’t quite found what I’m searching for


Now I’m falling, falling

Without your touch

You’re not enough

And I’m falling, falling

Without your touch

But you’re not enough
