Lyrics:
Can I ask you a question
you can drive and I will read you the directions
like your smile like your style I like hearing all about you
when I go do you miss me
when I'm gone do you ever think to kiss me
I said left in a mile forty feet is not a mile
I don't always sing in tune
but boy when you're around you know my melodies are full of you
I like you even more than a major minor four
I wouldn't mind if you were knocking at my door
When you're up come on over
get some sun to the freckles on your shoulders
take the day we can play see which one of us is stronger
there's a couch that'd like to meetzya
and I know someone who'd really like to feetzya
living room would be doomed without you to come compleetzya
it's not my favorite thing
being far apart was made for brushing teeth and tangerines
but trust this melody from LA to Tennessee
darling I think you might be the one for me

Your songs feel like hugs.
That is actually a really good way to describe her acoustic versions. X)
Is sad when you have nobody to hug ;-;
This is so perfect!!!
+emmablackery YOU
+Tessa Violet un caballo blanco por favor!
+Tessa Violet you and Emma are both great, would be cool if you wrote something together however unlikely or not ;) chalk and cheese but both great singer song writers :)
Holy crap I found tessa because of rusty clancton and I found him in the comment section of Emma blackery's video!
+mickyp I found Tessa from Dodie's vid "Broken Record" and I found Rusty from Dodie's cover of "Novels" with him... I also found Emma from Dodie... Ty Dodie xD
"I like you even more than a major minor four" is the quality of line a songwriter dreams for years of writing. That's a "screw it, I'm taking the rest of the day off and flying to Paris for cocktails" line.
'I like you even more than a major minor four' hot smokes y'all that is true love right there (cool cool cool song g as per)
when those oohs came in, I had a mini heart attack.
I'm alone and all the lights are out, I did not expect that omg.
Same, LOL
same oh my god
MAJOR MINOR FOUR YOU GET ME OMG THATS LIKE MY FAV THING
had a lil freak out there
+Kay Austin 😎😎😎
+Tessa Violet You JUST replied to my tweet with that emoji woah like that emoji much..?
+Kay Austin haha I don't know who I would be without the sunglasses emoji.
Such a solid, creative, wacky line!
This sounds like it fits right into the Life is Strange Soundtrack. Amazing:)
are you thinking pricefield because im thinking pricefield :')
ayye that's exactly what i was thinking
yasss
I WAS ABOUT TO COMMENT THAT
Miss Carnivora OMG
You're so right, my god
I can't figure out which is cuter - you or your lyrics. I love this so much! Wish I could see you guys on tour
Ikr! She's the best!
Right!
Such a calming song. I am extremely envious of your freckles.
your lighting is so perfect it looks like the background is a picture.
It's just so calming especially when you feel a bit full of anxiety.
It’s been 3 yrs, I need this on Spotify please
Christ. I wish someone cared enough to write a song for me. That was beautiful. Must be a helluva lucky person to inspire that.
audio so crisp, lyrics so poignant, harmony so heart melting. i wish this song was 10 hours long.
My God I found you 4 years late. Thank you for everything you do
I was completely blindsided by all this emotion
I wonder how many people actually appriciate the subtle genius off the music.
"I like you even more than a major minor four" GIves me crazy GOOSEBUMPS omg 😍😍
Nothing like some good mellow jams to cap off a good day.
"Being far apart was made for brushing teeth and tangerines" ❤ love it!
You are getting better and better and better. Beautiful stuff. You make this old man smile.
Songwriting chops are growing STRONGER, TESSA
Loved the major minor four bit, I'm not musical enough to know but I assumed that's what you were playing and it made me chuckle.
Tessa, I've been watching you for years now and I just want to say how proud I am of you. It's been wonderful seeing you change and really come into who you are. Your personality is unique and bright, you're absolutely beautiful and have amazing style (had to say, because I want to raid your wardrobe), and your music is simply perfection. Just wanted to let you know I think you are an awesome, incredible human being and I really appreciate getting to peek into your life and experience some of that beauty. I don't know how to end this sooo...Taco.
NinjaBunni13 beautiful. Tears in my eyes. Especially that last sentence...
you and Dodie are the reason I started learning ukelele and writing my own music💕
An original from Tessa Violet is always nice
"being far apart was made for brushing teeth and tangerines" - what a perfect line. love.
I missed this when it came out - really like the humming in the background and the major-minor bit!
I've been listening to Tessa for the past 3 days, non stop. It's been a great 3 days!
One of my favourite songs of yours so far!
Absolutely lovely! The title line is genius! The added "oohs" sounded amazing as well.
I just had a vacation in Tennessee that was absolutely amazing, and this song and Tennessee keep bringing me back. Very calming. Thanks, Tessa!
I was having a bad day. Thank you for this, Tessa
one of my favorite songs of all time
I am so glad I started following you. Your songs always make me smile. Great song!
Love it! Brushing teeth and tangerines...that made me smile.
Simply beautiful. Love it as always.
It's unreal how much I love this song
I had such a... visceral reaction to the title of this song, and I think it made me appreciate how adorable it is all the more.
your music just gets better and better! this was beautiful
You are impossibly captivating. Love the lyrics and I can't wait to hopefully see you play this soon!
Such a wonderful, beautiful song!
Good god this song was cozy. Thank you Tessa.
"I like you even more than a major minor four" I love this so much your lyrics are always so creative and cute

Every time i hear your songs, I fall right back in love with life... with it and the small things that make it beautiful everyday.

I LOVE THIS. great job tessa!
Your originals have changed so much since your last album ❤️ it's so incredible to see the changes. I hope we get another full one soon
These songs just keep getting better and better! In this one I like the calm intensity. But the bridge of Not Over You is still my favorite.
Hearing this live for your first time performing it for a crowd was everything. Love you Tessa you're amazing 💖💖💖
I love how she swayed her head to the beat at the beginning of the song ♥

Amazing!! I enjoyed so much. It is my favorite. Congratulations Tessa, you're fantastic ^_^
Wow wow wow, these last few song videos have been amazing. I always get super inspired to write music after listening :)
So, keep it up!!!
Good work Tessa, I'm glad I can see you new videos from you. I missed seeing videos from you especially when you first started UA-cam. Been a fan of you since.
Keep it up!
That was so good, and I'm so excited to hopefully see your concert in Chicago! Also, that sweater looks so comfy and I'm a bit jealous.
Good luck as your tour progresses! Hope it all goes well without any issues.
Just love this.
I really love that tone you sing this with..I don't watch a lot of your songs but this makes me want to go back and check them all ^^
I love this song so much. I have lost track of the number of times I have listened to it.
I adore this
This song is freaking adorable.
this was such a sweet and cute video. i love how light and airy your voice is. great job.
I'm obsessed with this song!
Such a phenomenal song! Well done Tessa!
So I was going through UA-cam as I do(obviously) and I came across this video and I was just like 'wow this is an awesome song, right up my alley' and when I went to check out your channel I realized who you were and that I watched you back when I was in middle school which is so weird considering I'm an adult now but anyway to cut this long unnecessary exposition short: I'm glad you're still making videos and doing cool stuff and I really like your music!
I have never felt so enchanted by a voice like yours
Such a great song wow!
Ooh! I love the song amazing! Can't wait for more

First time coming to your channel, so this is the first video I see and just wow. This is amazing. You have a great voice, keep up the good work! Just earned another sub.
You keep knocking it out of the park! Love these uploads you've being doing lately, you're probably my favorite youtuber who does original songs :)
Yet another Tessa Violet original that relaxes my soul
Can't wait for your next album to come out Tessa.
+Abi going great so far! Except I have the most terrible cramps. Trying not to die on the way to Jacksonville.
I saw your tweet! Ahhh that sucks so much. :( Take some medicine and try to relax during the drive (if at all possible). Hopefully they will be gone sooner rather than later! I'll be sending good thoughts your way!
I believe it's just "rustyclanton" and his stories are pure gold!
I can't even. You're amazing.
There is a gentile beauty to you and your music, it's wonderful!
this is such a cute song, it makes me so happy!
