There aren't enough songs about boys names so...

lyrics

There aren't enough songs about boys names so...
This one's for you Dave.
You might not be my best friend until the end
But you're a nice guy and I thought it was about time...

That someone wrote a song about a boy's name so...
This one's for you Dave!
You're a lovely bloke, you're all a girl could hope for
And it's about time that this was recognised yeah?

Oh, Dave!
I'd love ya like a brother would
If we were brothers but,
Dave (sometimes I call you David)
We used to play in the park together
We used to play no matter the weather, oh Dave!

I just want you to know I respect all decisions you make in your life and Dave!
I just want you to know you can be my friend until the very end.
If you want me to?

So. Dave. I just wanted to say. It's gonna be a beautiful day today. Because...

from Welcome, released June 22, 2012
For a certain Dave who probably will never know the song is about him, and for all Dave's, and for all boys who ever wanted to have a song named after them.

Also includes acoustic guitar performed by the lovely Keir Callaghan.
