Discover the story of the song > Encouraging Sign – The Twang

The protagonist sings about how sometimes the things he lacks can hold him back, but they also make him laugh. He expresses his love for his partner and hopes she will jump into bed with him. Even though her perfume makes him feel ill, he finds it encouraging that it's still on his pillow. He wants to be with her forever and quickstep over rooftops to get to her house. He doesn't want to sit through icy stares, but instead wants to hold on to her and hopes she will hold on to him.
