You tell me it’s a fantasy,
You say he’ll never look at me;
But he’s already liked a picture on my Instagram.
(Not to mention -)
In the middle of the night he comes to me in my wildest dreams,
Reveals to me years and years its seemed
Life was going nowhere are history
Cause the air, it shifts, when we’re together
Olly Alexander
And Me.
I wanna marry
Olly Alexander! Olly Alexander! Olly Alexander!
I wanna marry
Olly Alexander! Olly Alexander! Olly Alexander!
Monogamy’s a stranger,
Olly Alexander! Olly Alexander! Olly Alexander!
But not forever
(or with) Olly Alexander! Olly Alexander! Olly Alexander!
You tell me that he’s awful busy,
Got no time for a guy like me,
But he already liked a picture on my Instagram
(And don’t forget that - )
In the middle of the night he comforts me, makes me feel pretty
We speak only complex poetry
And our love surrounds us, somehow tangibly
While the earth’s core cools when we’re together
Olly Alexander
He comes to me in my wildest dreams,
I get on one knee, look up at my King,
Propose sweet nothings I’ve been told may mean,
"Can I be with you, my dear, forever,
Olly Alexander"?
In the middle of the night we drive away,
“Don’t look back,” he’ll say,
He loves me so, we're never letting go;
Dreams accelerate, yet all of time stands still,
Cause it’s “Clockstoppers” when we’re together
Olly Alexander
And me
<3

"Olly Alexander" written by Johnny Darlin, recorded and produced with Gandor Chorale & Cameron Toy productions
Johnny Darlin is a pop musician living and performing in Brooklyn, New York. He has released four EPs - "Mr. Monogamy,"
"Hump Daze," the Britney Spears Concept EP "Push," and "Way With Words." The best of all of these are compiled into the LP "Catalogue." Johnny has performed sold-out residencies as part of The New York and Prague Fringe Festivals.
Remarkable debut from most brilliant woman in stratosphere - two songs that are easily the best of 2014, and two more that are among most challenging. This woman breathes life. Johnny Darlin
Shangri-La-Di-Da literally forces the sun to come out on a rainy day, and the rest of the songs are just as dynamic in their own differing ways, I'm obsessed with these guys. Johnny Darlin
"If You Wanna Be Happy" is a modern classic+miracle, and the rest of the material is just as sick, plus their live game is on-point and their shows are transcendent w/talent Johnny Darlin
