Teddy Swims - Night Off

Copied!

It’s 2 AM and i’m still texting you
And I can tell I caught you in a mood
I know it’s late, babe yeah
If you tell me ‘’Pull up’’ girl, i’m comin’ through
Might ease the shit that you’ve been goin’ through
You need a break girl, you need a break

So when you get a night off
Say when, say when
I’mma try to pull up for a few minutes
Say when
I think it’s ‘bout time
Babe, we ready
We ready

We got a spark, I know you feel it too
But we work too much keeps me away from you, you, you
No reason why we can’t have something true
I cannot lie, i’m just waiting on you, you, you

Irreplaceable like a set of fine china
We should drop the bull, leave the baggage behind us
And I just need love, don’t give a shit what you hiding
So when you get the time, baby, you can hit my line up

So when you get a night off
Say when, say when
I’mma try to pull up for a few minutes
Say when
I think it’s ‘bout time
Babe, we ready
We ready

Girl, I just need a couple minutes
Fuckin’ with you, Imma’ hit it right, yeah
I just need a couple minutes
Imma’ hit it, fuckin’ with you
Right now

When you get a night off
Say when, say when
I’mma try to pull up for a few minutes
Say when
I think it’s ‘bout time
Babe, we ready
We ready

When you get a night off
Say when, say when
Imma’ try to pull up for a few minutes
Say when
I think it’s ‘bout time
Bae, we ready, we ready

Biography

edit bio

Teddy Swims, whose real name is Jaten Dimsdale, is an American singer-songwriter hailing from Atlanta, Georgia. Born on September 25, 1992, he grew up imbued with a rich tapestry of musical influences that ranged from classic rock, soul, R&B, to country. This eclectic taste in music would later manifest in his genre-fluid cover songs and original music.

Raised in a family that appreciated the arts, Teddy found his passion for music early on. He cultivated his voice and presence within the walls of church choirs, which is a common starting point for many soulful singers. The moniker "Swims" is an acronym for "Someone Who Isn't Me Sometimes," which reflects Teddy's philosophy of being free to be different versions of himself, and spreading love and positivity through his music.

In his mid-20s, after various stints in different bands and jobs outside of music, including a period of working as a tattoo artist, Teddy decided to take a leap of faith and focus solely on his music career. He shot to viral fame in 2019 after posting cover videos on YouTube that showcased his deep, soulful voice and remarkable ability to infuse songs from a wide variety of genres with his unique sound.

His cover of "I Can't Make You Love Me," originally by Bonnie Raitt, became a turning point, garnering millions of views and thrusting him into the spotlight almost overnight. What truly captivated the audience was not just his voice, but his authentic emotional delivery that made each cover feel personal and original.

Aside from covers, Teddy Swims also writes his own music, drawing from personal experiences and feelings. His original work carries the same emotional weight and genre-blending qualities as his covers. With a focus on heartfelt lyrics and melodies, his original songs display his versatility as a musician and his depth as a songwriter.

Teddy's debut EP, "Unlearning," released in 2021, showcases his journey of self-reflection and growth, both personal and musical. With his ever-growing online following, sold-out tours, and a voice that transcends genres, Teddy Swims has not only made a space for himself within the music industry but has also touched the hearts of listeners worldwide.

His journey continues to inspire as Teddy evolves as an artist, pushing the boundaries of music, and serving as a reminder of the uniting power of song. Whether through covers or original music, Teddy Swims aims to reach audiences on a deeply emotional level and to continue to swim against the current of any one genre, redefining what it means to be an artist in the process.
