Cool (Apple Music at Home with Session)
Cool (Apple Music at Home with Session) Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Sweet life living
Pools and swimming
Drinks in bars and
Boys in cars and
Rooftop sinning
Skinny dipping
Shooting stars with you
Fat cigars and
[Pre-Chorus]
And that weekend up in the islands
They stop and stare
Flashes filling the silence
Of a Hollywood love affair
Waking up in the islands
Cause I saw you there
Lost and trying to be
[Chorus]
I was just trying to be cool
I was just trying to be like you
I'm a spark and you're a boom
What am I supposed to do?
[Verse 2]
Mansion debut
Love it, do you?
Absent father
Pays his daughter
And her mama withdrew
From the life they once knew
She had a heart
But she sold it off for
Sweet life living
Pools and swimming
Drinks in bars and
Boys in cars and
Rooftop sinning
Skinny dipping
Shooting stars with you
Fat cigars and
[Pre-Chorus]
And that weekend up in the islands
They stop and stare
Flashes filling the silence
Of a Hollywood love affair
Waking up in the islands
Cause I saw you there
Lost and trying to be
[Chorus]
I was just trying to be cool
I was just trying to be like you
I'm a spark and you're a boom
What am I supposed to do?
[Verse 2]
Mansion debut
Love it, do you?
Absent father
Pays his daughter
And her mama withdrew
From the life they once knew
She had a heart
But she sold it off for
[Pre-Chorus]
That weekend up in the islands
They stop and stare
Flashes filling the silencе
Of a Hollywood love affair
Waking up in the islands
Cause I saw you thеre
Lost and trying to be
[Chorus]
I was just trying to be cool
I was just trying to be like you
I'm a spark and you're a boom
What am I supposed to do?
[Post-Chorus]
When I've got that cigarette smoke
And Saint Laurent coat, but nothing is feeling right
I drink but I choke
I love but I don't
[Chorus]
I was just trying to be cool
I was just trying to be like you
[Outro]
I was just trying to be cool
I was just trying to be like you
I'm a spark and you're a boom
What am I supposed to do?
I was just trying to be cool
I was just trying to be like you
I'm a spark and you're a boom
What am I supposed to do?
That weekend up in the islands
They stop and stare
Flashes filling the silencе
Of a Hollywood love affair
Waking up in the islands
Cause I saw you thеre
Lost and trying to be
[Chorus]
I was just trying to be cool
I was just trying to be like you
I'm a spark and you're a boom
What am I supposed to do?
[Post-Chorus]
When I've got that cigarette smoke
And Saint Laurent coat, but nothing is feeling right
I drink but I choke
I love but I don't
[Chorus]
I was just trying to be cool
I was just trying to be like you
[Outro]
I was just trying to be cool
I was just trying to be like you
I'm a spark and you're a boom
What am I supposed to do?
I was just trying to be cool
I was just trying to be like you
I'm a spark and you're a boom
What am I supposed to do?

What did Kylie Minogue say about "Cool (Apple Music at Home with Session)"?
Genius Answer
I chose to cover that as I love the way Troye uses ‘80s influences and soft synth-pop tones in the original. He manages to deliver an understated yet powerful chorus that I really fell in love with. And, of course, I’m really happy to be covering a track from such a talented, young Aussie artist!
