Josh Kerr has released his 11th track of the past year – releasing one song a month. The track follows Kerr’s recent collaboration with Emma & Jolie – How Do I Choose – released last month. The single is available everywhere here.
Josh Kerr has an ability and consistency like no other songwriter to deliver tenderly thoughtfully-written tracks that speak to the human experience of relationships, again and again. This track tells the story of never being able to move on from a love and relationship – no matter how hard you try, you ultimately end up consumed by memories. It’s bittersweet and deliciously painful, an artful reminder of the pain of moving on – seamlessly and extraordinarily delivered by Josh Kerr, who has made his mark on the country scene as an artist who universally understands and is able to contain the depth and immensity of human emotion and pain into a few minutes. If there is any justice, Kerr’s work deserves universal acclaim.
I’ve tried drinking, kissing brand-new lips
Tried going places that we’ve never been
I’ve told all my friends that we’re just friends
But honestly, the only problem is
Every time I listen to a love song
Every time I say I’m gonna move on I go back to you, I go back to you
Every time I let somebody get close
Every time I swear I’m gonna let go I go back to you, I go back to you
