K Lyrics
[Verse 1]
As the years blow by, baby
The more I come to know myself
The more it seems my love grows for you
And surely I'd be dead, baby
Had I gone with someone else
For this and more, my love's owed to you
[Chorus]
K, anytime it feels as though my love has gone away
K, settle down, turn around, and take this song, and let it play
[Verse 2]
Got to know your heart, baby
Still so much for me to learn
And as I do, my love stays with you
And surely I'd be dumb, baby
Had I made another turn
Glad the turn that I made was you
[Chorus]
K, anytime it feels as though my love has gone away
K, settle down, turn around, and take this song, and let it play
K, anytime it feels as though my love has gone away
K, settle down, turn around, and take this song, and let it play
As the years blow by, baby
The more I come to know myself
The more it seems my love grows for you
And surely I'd be dead, baby
Had I gone with someone else
For this and more, my love's owed to you
[Chorus]
K, anytime it feels as though my love has gone away
K, settle down, turn around, and take this song, and let it play
[Verse 2]
Got to know your heart, baby
Still so much for me to learn
And as I do, my love stays with you
And surely I'd be dumb, baby
Had I made another turn
Glad the turn that I made was you
[Chorus]
K, anytime it feels as though my love has gone away
K, settle down, turn around, and take this song, and let it play
K, anytime it feels as though my love has gone away
K, settle down, turn around, and take this song, and let it play

What did Mac DeMarco say about "K"?
Genius Answer
A lil sweet Paul McCartney tune for her.
She’s sweet to me. I love her. I’m sure she’s like, ‘For fuck’s sake.’ I like writing songs. Sometimes you gotta do something nice. I don’t even know if it’s nice. Maybe it’s embarrassing.
Me and Kiera have known each other six years longer than we’ve dated. It took time for us to get here but she’s part of who I am, I’m part of who she is, and I wouldn’t want it any other way. I’m really lucky.
