lyrics

you can’t rely on emotion
hits like a cloud rollin through
but we’ve had this big one hanging over that’s jankin’ my groove

your eyes have grand implications
but still your lips never move
give me that verbal confirmation that you feel it too

why’s it so strange to say you love me?
like it’s some burden to prove?

i know the word’s grown cheaper over time, that’s real
and maybe it’s too far gone to capture the depths of how you really feel
but somehow it still wrecks me
that you can’t shake one loose
(just one, just say it)

why’s it so strange to say you love me?
what kinda harm would it do?
i sense some friction when you touch me
i wanna get smooth

(various monosyllabic sounds)

why’s it so strange to say you love me?
why’s it so strange to say you love me?
why’s it so strange to say you love me?
why’s it so strange to say you love me?

Big Dopes Denver, Colorado

Big Dopes' loose, lighthearted feel evokes 90s alternative and indie. Lead songwriter Eddie Schmid uses a playful, conversational vocal style to sing through neuroses about long-distance relationships, being a houseguest, and wasting money on shitty headphones. Ricky Brewer (drums) and Justin Catanzaro (bass) lend vibrant, dynamic rhythms, and Paul Simmons adds colorful violin, guitar, and synth. ... more
