Supernova Lyrics


So you and me we've been hanging out now
Ever since we were kids just kicking around this town
So you know me and I don't back down
I know what I want and I think I've found it

I want you to be my girl
I want you to be my girl
So we touched a Supernova
So we touched a supernova

So you know me and I'm on the right track
Going to get out of here and never come back
So you know me when I'm on the attack
Ain't no use in fighting back

I want you to be my girl
I want you to be my girl
So we touched a supernova
So we touched a supernova

(Super)
(Supernova)
(Supernova)

When I'm low well I know who to call
When I think I'm about to hit the wall
Sorry baby I know you would never ever let me fall
Every time I turn around baby there you are
Just shining down on me like a blazing star

Yeah that's what you are
Your a blazing star
That's what you are
That's what you are
That's what what what what

So we touched a supernova
So we touched a supernova

So you and me we've been hanging out now
Ever since we were kids just kicking around this town
So you know me and I don't back down
I know what I want and I think I've found it

I want you to be my girl
I want you to be my girl

So we touched a supernova
So we touched a supernova

So we touched a supernova
So we touched a supernova

(Super)
(Supernova)
(Supernova)

Supernova
  • This is the title track and lead single of Ray LaMontagne's fifth studio album. The record was produced by Dan Auerbach of The Black Keys who helped dip the New Hampshire singer-songwriter 's folky sound into psychedelic waters. LaMontagne told American Songwriter magazine: "I always liked that psychedelic sound. I was always a fan of early Pink Floyd. I like the Kinks, the Troggs. I loved all that stuff. Captain Beefheart too. So I think this album is maybe tipped a little more in that direction in terms of influences."

    "I just really allowed myself to write a different kind of song," he added. "I thought people might not like it, but that's never been a factor for me. I've been writing songs now for fifteen years and so I can trust my gut at this point."
  • Ray LaMontagne initially felt no pressure to swiftly produce a follow-up album to his 2010's Grammy winning set, God Willin' and the Creek Don't Rise. However the right songs were eluding him, so in 2012 the songwriter decided to seek help. He wrote to his friend Elvis Costello for advice. LaMontagne told American Songwriter magazine: "He's always been a sort of mentor to me. Overall, I was just going through this weird stage. Nothing was sounding interesting to me. I'd think, I don't want to do that, or, I've done that already. It was like the well had run dry.

    So I put my heart on my sleeve, and I told Elvis, 'God, I don't know what the hell I'm doing. I feel like I'm banging my head against the wall.' And he said, 'There's only one way. You just have to trust that inner voice.' That was really helpful. So I just really allowed myself to write a different kind of song."
