I took her out to gaze at the stars last night.
When we were done we went for a car ride.
Then on the way back home I told her that I had to be honest;
That the truth is I've been staring since August,
But I was just too slow.
Well, I know how you feel about me.
It shows when I get you angry.
I'm sorry for holding this in for so long.
It's a fear I've been living with all year,
But I'm done with it
Because I'm dying just trying to keep the space between our faces!
We've been the best of friends since back in 1999,
But it's not enough,
'Cause I'm in love!
And friends can't be close like this.
So take a breath and let's express the sparks and stars 'round our heads,
'Cause this is real.
The truth has spilled.
We don't have to dream.
She looked at me with half of a smile,
Then extended it to span for a mile and broke her silent stare.
She told me I was slower than Moses;
That the year before a rock would have noticed
And caught the hints she fired.
Well, you know how I feel about you.
It shows,
I'm a wreck without you.
I'm sorry for holding this in for so long.
It's a fear I've been living with all year,
But I'm done with it
'Cause I'm dying just trying to keep the space
Between our faces!
I see you.
You can't shut me out or shut me down
'Cause you know,
And I know,
That we are,
We're falling like shooting stars.
We're burning down these walls.
