Kip Moore - Hey Old Lover Lyrics

Kip Moore Lyrics

"Hey Old Lover"

We haven't talked in quite awhile
Sure is good to hear your smile
Now that I've got you on the phone
Girl, you know
We weren't built to be alone
No, no

So, hey old lover, won't you come on over
Heard you're in between boyfriends from your mother
I always thought we'd end up together
Baby girl, right now nothin' sounds better than to
Lay around with someone I don't have to play pretend with
Someone who already knows what she's gettin'
Say you're comin' over, say the word
I'm on my way, hey, hey old lover

Now all the silence on the line
Makes me think, you think I'm right
Throw all your caution to the stars
Girl, you can't break a broken heart
No, no

So, hey old lover, won't you come on over
Heard you're in between boyfriends from your mother
I always thought we'd end up together
Baby girl, right now nothin' sounds better than to
Lay around with someone I don't have to play pretend with
Someone who already knows what she's gettin'
Say you're comin' over, say the word
I'm on my way, hey, hey old lover

So, hey old lover, won't you come on over
Heard you're in between boyfriends from your mother
I always thought we'd end up together
Baby girl, right now nothin' sounds better than to
Lay around with someone I don't have to play pretend with
Someone who already knows what she's gettin'
Say you're comin' over, say the word
I'm on my way, hey, hey old lover

Let's make some new love
Make some new love
Let's make some new love

Writer(s): Dan Couch, Kip Christian Moore

Speaking with Apple Music, Kip Moore told the following story about "Hey Old Lover", "Dan Couch and I were actually writing another song, and then I started ripping around on that riff. It wasn't like we were specifically thinking about anything in particular; those opening lines of the chorus kind of fell out. Then it just became that songwriting process of trying to be clever and fun with the song and writing around the initial feeling that we had."
