## Track listing

All tracks are written by Faye Webster

### A Dream with a Baseball Player

The album's ninth track, "A Dream with a Baseball Player", was released as a single. "A Dream with a Baseball Player" was inspired by Atlanta Braves outfielder Ronald Acuña Jr., on whom Webster (a lifelong Braves fan) had developed a crush, while watching Braves games regularly after her return from her 2019 tour. Lyrics such as "[H]e and I don't speak the same language / But we have conversations in my head... I could just meet him and get it over/ Or I'll just keep wearing his name on my shirt", with the repeated refrain of "How did I fall in love with someone I don't know?" are explained by Webster with "A song about Ronald Acuña Jr., obviously... I guess this song explains what having a crush feels like. Having made up conversations with them in your head even though you don’t speak their language, wearing their team jersey every day, things that make you feel closer to this person that you don’t know at all."
