You dress yourself so well
Your make up makes your eyes so bright
And even though I know you’re taken
I want you to be mine
Your lips are red and I’m distracted
I can’t hear a word
But a thought slips out my mouth
And I know for sure you heard what I just said
I’m dismantling bombs in my stomach
I swallow them whole
But I missed one, I missed one
It’s heading straight for you
And I can’t do anything
No, I don’t know what to say at all
I keep having thoughts of futures
It just makes things worse
Romantic moments like in movies
This feels so rehearsed
But telling you might stop me stressing
At least then you’d know
And even if you just don’t feel the same
It might help me let you go
I’m dismantling bombs in my stomach
I swallow them whole
But I missed one, I missed one
It’s heading straight for you
And I can’t do anything
No, I don’t know what to say at all
Will these words make you smile
Or should I apologise
The awkward moment as the thought sinks in
Then you tell me how you feel
She said
I’m so sorry you fought
Not to tell me
Because I’ve liked you as long
So now kiss me
I’m heading straight for you
Your lips are calling to me
No, I’ve nothing else to say at all
I’ve nothing else to say at all
I’ve nothing else to say at all
