"Admit It" is a song born out of a fever dream; it's the romanticization of running away with someone you can't have, where both people have an undeniable but unspoken chemistry. Clever, catchy lyrics float over an acoustic-driven 4-piece rock band, flushed out with lush vocal harmonies, dreamy electric guitars, and banjo (to add that little country touch). Fans of Taylor Swift's early eras (think Fearless, Red) will love Admit It's romantic, renegade vide. Adina is joined by guitarist Eric Bernhardt, bassist Chris Parnis, and drummer Aidan Lucas-Buckland on this easy, breezy, beautiful indie-pop banger.
lyrics
you're on the other line
do you realize
we could make a big mistake?
you talk but i don't say a thing
too busy listening
to the sound your breath makes
i think that i'm obsessed now
i see you in my dreams
but isn't it the best now?
flirting like we're 17
and it gets better every day we don't admit it
and nothing you could say could ever make me quit it
mmm
maybe in another life
we could take a drive
down to california
run away from everything
buy a diamond ring
you know that i adore ya
and aren't you impressed now?
i'm busy making plans
and isn't it the best now?
speaking a language no one understands
and it gets better every day we don't admit it
and nothing you could say could ever make me quit it
come in close but baby just don't blow your cover
in your dreams i know that i'm your shotgun lover
mmm
now i guess it's really happening
i tell you all the time
i could change your whole damn life
but maybe you don't wanna try
too scared to see the other side
but maybe that's a lie
is it just a waste of time?
and it gets better every day we don't admit it
and nothing you could say could ever make me quit it
come in close but baby just don't blow your cover
in your dreams i know that i'm your shotgun lover
mmm
