Georgia Lyrics


She is something to behold
Elegant and bold
She is electricity
Running to my soul, oh

And I could easily lose my mind
The way you kiss me will work each time
Calling me to come back to bed
Singing Georgia on my mind

And I, and I

Lips generous and warm
You build me up like steps
Eyes innocent and wild
Remind me what it's like, oh

And I could easily lose my mind
The way you kiss me will work each time
Pulling me back into the flames
And I'm burning up again, I'm burning up

And I, I never understood what was at stake
I never thought your love was worth it's wait
Well now you've come and gone
I finally worked it out, I worked it out

I never should have told you
I never should have let you see inside
Don't want it troubling in your mind
Won't you let it be

I never should have told you
I never should have let you see inside
Don't want it troubling in your mind
Won't you let it be

I never should have told you
I never should have let you see inside
Don't want it troubling in your mind
Won't you let it be

I never should have told you
I never should have let you see inside
Don't want it troubling in your mind
Won't you let it be

And I could easily lose my mind
The way you kiss me will work each time
Pulling me back into the flames
And I'm burning up again, I'm burning up

And I, I never understood what was at stake
I never thought your love was worth its wait
Well now you've come and gone
I finally worked it out, I worked it out, oh, ooh, oh

Georgia Song Chart
  • Vance Joy wrote this on January 1, 2014 following a period of struggling to come up with any songs. "The well doesn't dry up," he said. "Before 'Georgia,' I wasn't feeling particularly inspired, then that song came out of nowhere. I was on a high for five days. You can't force it, but it's nice to know that now you recognize when a song is coming."
  • This is Joy's favorite song from his Dream Your Life Away album to play live. He explained in an interview with 89.3 KPCC: "It's got a nice groove and it's slightly different in terms of the flavor and the instrumentation than the other songs on my album."

    The song calls for Joy to commit hard when performing it. "I guess there's no way of singing it without giving a lot of yourself. You have to really bring it for the vocal, because the vocal is quite high, and there's a couple of moments where I really, it's just me and my voice, and there's no other instruments," he said. "In those moments, I guess they require you to push, push yourself. And it feels good, and I think the people can connect with that when they're watching you give everything. Hopefully they think it's real."
