Quill the Messenger - Top Shelf Lyrics
Official




Ye-yes Ye-ye-yes love
I wanna give you the best of me
No second hand or off-brand
Just top shelf LOVE
Ye-yes Ye-ye-yes love
I wanna give you the best of me
Not watered down or on the rocks
Just straight up trust and transparency
Remember when we wrote letters
Typewriter in a suitcase
While you were out on tour
With those maroon Doc Martens
With the frayed black shoelace
Yeah, I was finishin' school
Pourin' out my heart like a Guinness
From a stool at the Fuel Cafe
But we were on our way
Gettin' ready for our wedding day
Ay, we went from $20 dates
One order, two plates
Twenty years later, martinis with our steaks
The future we shape as our children grow
Tryin' to instill hope, help them find they flow
Moved a few times to expand the vision
Adventures together, we are fam on a mission
Believin' in the best, overlookin' imperfections
Our hopes and our dreams, findin' new intersections
Ye-yes Ye-ye-yes love
I wanna give you the best of me
No second hand to off-brand
Just top shelf LOVE
Yes, yes, yes, yes, love
I wanna give you the best of me
Not watered down or on the rocks
Just straight up trust and transparency
It's hard to stay open
When the world is so closed
And it's hard to keep hope alive
When all our insecurities are exposed
And we're holdin' on for dear life
Tryin' to make it through to daylight
But hey, it's gon' be alright
Hold tight, it'll be alright
Cause I'm here with you, you're here with me
There's no other place that I would rather be
I vow to live in the now
To try to be present whenever you're around
To give you my whole heart even when it's in pieces
From the inner depths to the outer reaches
Whatever love teaches, I wanna attempt
Even when it gets messy, awkward and unkempt
Check it out like
Ye-yes Ye-ye-yes love
I wanna give you the best of me
No second hand to off-brand
Just top shelf LOVE
Ye-yes Ye-ye-yes love
I wanna give you the best of me
Not watered down or on the rocks
Just straight up trust and transparency
From that first hug that felt like home
Outside the big red church
It felt like we could know and be known
We both fell in love headfirst
From the spotlights to the dark nights
Of caring for babies and feeling lost like
What happened to the dreams we cherished
Sacrificed on the altar of child-rearing and marriage
You left so much, gave a lot up
Felt so low and still you got up
And decided it was time to release your inner shine
Graduating with honors and invoking the divine
With a voice that sparkles and soothes
Whether spoken or sung, mountains get moved
What sacred joy has yet to manifest
As we give it our all and bring forth our best
Ye-yes Ye-ye-yes love
I wanna give you the best of me
No second hand or off brand
Just top shelf, L-O-V-E
Ye-yes Ye-ye-yes love
I wanna give you the best of me
Not watered down or on the rocks
Cause with you I becomes we
