Untitled
I would give everything and more not to look at you
So I wouldn't have to worry about what's right to do
But it seems you're my fatal attraction
Taken me over with overwhelming affection
Not gettin' what's keeping me from talking
Not sure why I prefer to be walking
Every night I am sittin' here
Convinced you're the one my dear
When actually I honestly have no idea who you are
But that's the point, I never had to think this far
It's all about these little things
They lift me up, they give me wings
Here I am deliberately runnin' the extra mile
The world would stop just 'cause you smile
Your name brings a hundred things to mind
But there's no verbal representation I can find
Catching so many girls who'd be lookin' at me
In a room where there's only one I'd like to see
Unknowingly you keep from a lot of fun
Yet my mistake for not getting it done
Will I only wonder about a life I almost had
Hopefully someday I'll find a better way instead
