i'd like to get to know you i'd like to take you out we'd go to the hail mary and afterwards make out. instead, im typing you a message that i know i'll never send, rewriting old excuses delete the kisses at the end. when i see you, the whole world reduces to just that room and then i remember and i'm shy that gossip's eye will look too soon and then im trapped, overthinking and yeah, probably self-doubt you tell me to get over it and to take you out but i can't, i'm too scared and here's the night bus, i have to go and the doors are closing, and you were waving and i like you, and i'll never let it show and you won't wait, and maybe i won't mind i work better on my own and now i'm home, a little bit drunk and i ask myself what if it's not meant for me? love. what if it's not meant for me? love. a few days pass since i last saw you and you've taken over my mind im retelling jokes you made that made me laugh pretending that they're mine i wanna tell the whole world about you i think that that's a sign im losing self-control and it's you, it really is, 1000 times i look at your picture and i smile how awful's that? im like a teenage girl i might as well write all over my notebook that you rock my world but you do, you really do. you've turned me upside down and that's okay, i'll let it happen 'cause i like having you around im electric, a romantic cliché yeah, they really are all true when we catch eyes at that stupid party i know exactly what to do i'll take your hand, and we will leave french exits from me and you and now im home, a little bit drunk some things don't change, and i know now me and you were meant to be in love
