Sondre Lerche Sentimentalist Lyrics

INTRO, in a swung 6/8 feel
M7/ M7
For a self-professed lover, romanticist at heart
I wasted less to no time at all
M7/ M7
Tying the knot, dying to not rot
But I'm no sentimentalist
M7/ M7
Was a self-confessed tyro, so rational so far
Such a dumb way to get what you want
M7/ M7
Loved you a lot, loved you a whole lot
But I'm no sentimentalist
Don't I know you, my love?
M7
Don't I know you, my love?
You can ask me again,
but you may never know
I'll be damned if I fight
I'll be damned if I don't
In the end, would it count?
Don't you know me, my love?
M7
Don't you know me, my love?
I may ask you again,
but you may never know
I'll be damned if I fight
I'll be damned if I don't
M7/ M7
For a final farewell before everything falls down
You wasted less to no time at all
M7/ M7
On a table for eight you set for a trio
You were no sentimentalist
M7/ M7
Sought a mock independence, irrational and harsh
Such a sad way to get what you want
M7/ M7
Love be the hurt and the consoler
But I'm no sentimentalist
Don't I know you, my love?
M7
Don't I know you, my love?
You can ask me again,
how the hell should I know?
I'll be damned if I fight
I'll be damned if I don't
In the end, would it count?
Don't you know me, my love?
M7
Don't you know me, my love?
I may ask you again,
but you may never know
I'll be damned if I fight
I'll be damned if I don't
