Lifetime of Lovers
These lyrics are a very personal statement about the artist's life. There are very specific details that illustrate the parts of the artist's life in a wistful, and imaginative way. The main message is that everyone is a combination of those that came before them, but are also their own person. It's a celebration of family, but also individuality.

Wunschliste
A baby girl born in the middle of October
fifth to put an X through a box labeled “daughter”
the third to go to college
the second to date a man who was not her age
the only one to wave the flag
seventeen years old tryna find out who she is
she’s tough as nails while the world is throwing bricks
her parents wish for normal
but she has got bigger dreams
She’s not the first one to climb up that old oak tree
or to dance in the yard to the beat of the breeze
her laugh is the same as her mother’s
and she’s as gullible as the others before her
yeah she’s the product of a lifetime of lovers
Hard as hell tryna make it on her own
her parents’ love is all she’s ever known
she hopes that someday soon she can give them the life they deserve
cuz they gave her the world
yeah they gave her the world
She’s not the first one to climb up that old oak tree
or to dance in the yard to the beat of the breeze
her laugh is the same as her mother’s
and she’s as gullible as the others before her
yeah she’s the product of a lifetime of lovers
She’s a gift wrapped version of their past
the one that they thought they could never get back
she’s a glimpse out the window to the future
no their lives wouldn’t be the same without her
She’s not the first one to climb up that old oak tree
or to go out back and dance with the breeze
her laugh may be the same as her mother’s
but she’s different than all of the others
yeah she’s the product of a lifetime of lovers
