Foley - The Way Tonite Will Work

Copied!

She sat and watched my mind go blank
I couldn't speak her body language
I couldn't speak at all
I just sat there staring at her wall
She's really into mindfulness
And thinks that we miss most our lives
And said the moment doesn't last
While I'm stuck somewhere in the past

And we sat on her floor
And I could feel myself getting boring
And the way tonight will work is that it won't

So I stared down at my drink
Thought by now i'd stop overthinking things
But the way tonight will work is that it won't
I know that it won't

She talked about her friends back home
How she still thinks of them as home
But said she guessed the best way to get better is through someone new
But after tonight I recognize that there won't be a second night
Of staring at her couch and missing someone else's mouth

So I guess I'm done
With pretending I'm having fun
And the way tonight will work is that it won't
So I will grab my hat
Say my farewells to her cat
Cause the way tonight will work is that it won't
I know that it won't

edit bio

Foley started almost as a dare – a challenge between two long time friends to put a meaningful spin on pop music.

The pair have made a name for themselves by acting out against the standard producer-vocalist two piece model; instead writing, performing and producing everything completely collaboratively. In an industry where female vocalists are often commoditised, it’s an important distinction to make.

Foley have developed a strong point of view as commentators of millennial doubt and confusion. They have never shied from laying bare the stark challenge of navigating love and relationships in your 20’s, attempting to piece together some sense around the most universal of emotions.

Honest to a fault, Foley have quickly picked up a fanbase of young like minded listeners not only for the music but for their fun loving attitude, and genuinely loved up friendship. Their transparency with each other and their fanbase makes for a hilarious, emotionally authentic and carefree relationship that will have you laughing and crying in the same breath.

Behind the scenes, the duo have formed a relationship with producers Josh Fountain (Benee, LEISURE, MAALA) and Djeisan Suskov (Mitch James, Matthew Young, LEISURE)
