A little more about me:

Hey everyone! Thanks for watching my video!

I'm Rachael Kennedy: a 5 foot 9, slightly lanky, Canadian singer/songwriter on a mission: a mission to play indie pop melodies with lyrics that will make you think about yourself, your friends, love, your dog, the universe, your mom, and the state of the world you live in. To get a better idea of the kind of music I play, picture this: If Bob Dylan had a granddaughter who grew up next to Coldplay and whose best friends were John Mayer and Tegan and Sara... that person would be me.

Check out the rest of my videos and subscribe if you think getting involved would be a good idea...cause it is... ;)

Lyrics:

Love left me on the 8th of May
You could say I've had better days
It's like it's warm outside but I'm still frozen
And even when it starts to rain
It's like you're pounding on my brain, it's not sane

So you keep your mouth shut and you learn to grow up
But they're pounding, and pounding

And I loved you, you're all I ever knew baby
You were my baby
And if what they say is true, and I'm believing them lately,
Then goodbye baby

Hope and everything you left behind
We focus on a better time
It's like I'm running fast but in slow motion
And even on a sunny day, it's like I'm burning in every way
And I can't stay

So I keep my mouth shut and I learn to grow up
But they're burning, and burning

And I loved you, you're all I ever knew baby
You were my baby
And if what they say is true, and I'm believing them lately,
Then goodbye baby

You keep taking, infiltrating, messing with my heart
Our lives are moving, it's me I'm losing, cause I can't find your heart
Love left me on the 8th of May

And I loved you, you're all I ever knew baby
You were my baby
And if what they say is true, and I'm believing them lately,
Then goodbye baby

Hello Rachael! It's Julia, we met at the dental office. I saw your mother today. You're so lucky to have such a great mom! She gave me your card because I was interested in listening to your music. I love this song. You are a wise and beautiful soul and songwriter. I hope you get a record deal soon as I love your lyrics and taste in music. Anyway, your mother speaks very highly of you and seems very proud of you! I look forward to hearing more of your songs soon! All the best, Julia
