RRI.CO.ID, Manado : Beberapa hari setelah merilis album PACK UR BAGS I’M COMING W U pada 26 Juni, Weda Mauve kembali menghadirkan kejutan melalui bonus single berjudul FIRST OF JULY (bonus). Hadir sebagai lagu tambahan yang melengkapi cerita dari album tersebut, single ini menjadi penutup emosional yang memperluas narasi tentang cinta, harapan, dan kenangan yang belum selesai.

Mengusung nuansa dream pop yang lembut dan atmosferik, FIRST OF JULY (bonus) bercerita tentang seseorang yang tetap bertahan memperjuangkan hubungan yang telah berulang kali ditolak. Alih-alih menerima bahwa semuanya telah berakhir, ia terus berusaha menghidupkan kembali masa lalu, karena di sanalah masa depan yang selama ini ia harapkan pernah terasa begitu nyata. Berikut lirik lagu FIRTS OF JULY :

FIRST OF JULY

Weda Mauve

A quarter glass of wine,

The last to stand in line.

You want me more than you think you do.

Fuel my tank up,

This is not where we should stop.

Don’t you miss the look in my eyes when it’s

good?

We can drive around till the sun sets too

high,

Dancing on the street like the 1st of July.

It’s winter on the coast, won’t you hold me

tonight?

Feel my arms around you before you say

your goodbyes.

Goodbyes.

Goodbyes.

Goodbyes.

It’s a quarter past nine,

We could walk under red lights.

I understand the things that you’re going

through.

If you give me one last cry,

Your lips right above mine,

Then maybe you could help me set you

loose.

We can drive around till the sun sets too

high,

Dancing on the street like the 1st of July.

It’s winter on the coast, won’t you hold me

tonight?

Feel my arms around you ’fore we say our

goodbyes.

I can’t see you.

I can’t feel you.

But I only breathe you now.

I can’t touch you.

I can’t love you.

But I only want you now.

We could drive around till the sun sets too

high,

Dancing in your jeans till my feet get too

tired.

It was summer on the coast where you held

my hands tight.

Can we see each
