“ | It’s that light, sonically. Lyrically it's a bit more cheeky. It’s just a really fun song. I wrote it with Leland and we were dying laughing and just having the best time writing it. Lyrically I think it's the most subversively queer song on the album. That's kind of what makes me like it so much — it's almost like a little inside joke. It's [sonically] very consumable pop music so I can imagine the masses understanding it a little bit more, and that’s funny to me. I don't even think it's necessarily the big single or anything like that, but I really hope the song ends up spreading its wings way further than the people who wouldn't normally listen to my music. | ” |

Lyrics[]
Take a trip into my garden
I’ve got so much to show ya
The fountains and the waters
Are begging just to know ya
And it’s true, baby
I’ve been saving this for you, baby
I guess it’s something like a fun fair
Put gas into the motor
And boy I’ll meet you right there
We’ll ride the rollercoaster
Cause it’s true, babe
I been saving this for you, baby
(I need you to)
Tell me right before it goes down
(Promise me you’ll)
Hold my hand if I get scared now
(Might tell you to)
Take a second baby slow it down
You should know I, you should know I
(Yeah I boom) I bloom just for you
(I bloom) just for you
(Yeah I bloom) I bloom just for you
(I bloom), just for you
Come on baby play me like a love song
Every time it comes on
I get this sweet desire
(Yeah I bloom) I bloom just for you
(I bloom), just for you
Now it’s the perfect season
Yeah, let’s go for it this time
We’re dancing with the trees and
I’ve waited my whole life
It’s true, baby
I been saving this for you, baby
(I need you to)
Tell me right before it goes down
(Promise me you’ll)
Hold my hand if I get scared now
(Might tell you to)
Take a second baby slow it down
You should know I, you should know I
(Yeah I boom) I bloom just for you
(I bloom) just for you
(Yeah I bloom) I bloom just for you
(I bloom), just for you
Come on baby play me like a love song
Every time it comes on
I get this sweet desire
(Yeah I bloom) I bloom just for you
(I bloom), just for you
Just for you
I bloom just for you
I bloom just for you
Baby, baby, I’ve been saving this for you, baby
Baby, baby, I’ve been saving this for you, baby
(Yeah I boom) I bloom just for you
(I bloom) just for you
(Yeah I bloom) I bloom just for you
(I bloom), just for you
Come on baby play me like a love song
Every time it comes on
I get this sweet desire
(Yeah I bloom) I bloom just for you
(I bloom), just for you
Just for you
I bloom just for you
I bloom just for you
Just for you
I bloom just for you
I bloom just for you
