Though it’s not officially dubbed a duet, Miranda Lambert‘s boyfriend Anderson East provides the harmonies on the track “Pushin’ Time” off of her new album The Weight Of These Wings. The country star penned the love song with Foy Vance and Natalie Hemby.
The tune is extremely personal and touches upon the apprehension of staring a new relationship. As the song continues, the nerves disappear and hope for the new romance breaks through.
Enjoy the heartfelt collaboration below!
Are we fools for rushin’ in,
Cause I already dread the end.
Lonely ain’t no place to start;
I guess that’s just where we are.
Oh how I remember well
The sunset on September 12.
I disappeared to get a drink;
You still kept your eyes on me
Sometimes loves acts out of spite,
And good things happen over night.
Can’t take it slow cause you and I are pushin’ time
I didn’t plan on fallin’ fast;
I didn’t know I could be kissed like that.
No I’m tradin’ miles for minutes.
This bed’s too big without you in it.
Sometimes love acts out of spite,
And good things happen over night.
Can’t take it slow cause you and I are pushin’ time
You and I are pushin’ time
And they say only time can tell,
You already know me well.
If it has to end in tears,
I hope that it’s in sixty years.
Sometimes love acts out of spite,
And good things happen over night.
Can’t take it slow cause you and I are pushin’ time.
Can’t take it slow cause you and I are pushin’ time.
“If it has to end in tears / I hope it’s in 60 years,” Lambert details in her heartfelt lyrics. While the songbird keeps relatively quiet about her personal life, those lyrics say it all.
We wish this couple the best! Share this lovely tune with other country music fans.
