I Belong to You
Van Gogh's Grandsons
Fun Indie Pop · Mushroom Dreams · Questioning Ownership
I belong to you
You belong to me
As we hike barefoot in the forest
On a mushroom hunting spree
#CHORUS
I belong to you
But you let me off the leash
’Cause you realize that being owned
Squelches love and lasting peace
#VERSE
Still, you own me and my consent
The mushrooms came, tomatoes went
Tossed on canvas, splattered red
With little Jackson Pollocks running round inside our heads
#PRE-CHORUS
Follow me to freedom
Anything we want to do
But we’re joined in all things at the hip
With a big wet blob of superglue
#CHORUS
I belong to you
You belong to me
We dance through Mushroom Forest
With canvases of creativity
#CHORUS
You belong to me
At least you say you do
Adult consent in everything
Even candlelight trips to the petting zoo
#VERSE
You like the way we worked things out
Played catch-and-release with that fish called doubt
No need to blame, or ask, or hide
Free on the surface but owned inside
Free on the surface but owned inside
#INSTRUMENTAL
Free on the surface but owned inside
#BRIDGE
Free on the surface
(But owned inside)
Two ships with no purpose
(Floating in the tide)
Barefoot in Mushroom Forest
(Without a mushroom hunting guide)
Do you really belong to me
(Or did you lie, lie, lie)
Do you really belong to me
(Or did you lie, lie, lie)
Do you really belong to me
(Or did you lie, lie, lie)
#INSTRUMENTAL
#PRE-CHORUS
I’ll follow you to anywhere
I’ll let you tell me what to do
And you know that I’ll do it well
You own my heart—a gift for you
#CHORUS
You belong to me
I belong to you
All this talk of ownership
Has gotten me confused
Maybe…
#CHORUS
You belong to you
I belong to me
But how deeply can we love
If we’re both completely free
#OUTRO
How deeply can we love
If we’re both completely free
How deeply can we love
If we’re both completely free
Oh well, the Mushroom Forest calls us
Slip your shoes off for another spree
