Give me a space beneath the shade Gimme a glass of spiced lemonade You’ve got the day ahead of you And I’ve got you, so why don’t we stay? Fifty-three things on the shelf My life is like a checklist Wish that I could be myself And be a little reckless Where’s the fire where’s the smoke Tell me what’s the rush now? You’re not rich but you’re not broke So don’t you make a fuss now Baby one thing just became clear Let’s tear up the list and go from here Give me a space beneath the shade Gimme a glass of spiced lemonade You’ve got the day ahead of you And I’ve got you, so why don’t we stay? Give me a space beneath the shade Gimme a glass of spiced lemonade You’ve got the day ahead of you So many hours of nothing to do Give me a space beneath the shade Gimme a glass of spiced lemonade You’ve got the day ahead of you And I’ve got you, so why don’t we stay? #chiragtodi #spicedlemonade #officialsong #dot #musicvideo
