lyrics

She's strutting around
This sweet brunette
I try – try to hide
It's no secret

My eyes are so fixated
I'ma find a way
Just to play it

She takes a few steps
My way
I'm in a debate
'bout what to say

I follow the curves
On her green dress
She's making me sweat
It's ridiculous

CHORUS:
Somebody get me a drink
For it might help me to think
Someone fetch me a dream
Make this moment for me please
It finally all makes sense
The bleeding and the consequence
I needed a reason to breathe
And she found me in this piece

Before I could even speak
I got a dry mouth
And my knees went weak

Why is this happening to me?
It's the kind of thing
From the movies

She told me she liked
My guitar
I played a few riffs
And I felt her heart

It was beating along
With the music
For a minute
Everything lifted

CHORUS

Whatever else can I call her
But a girl with no sense
Of order

The way to the middle
Was unclear
The dominant feeling
Was fear

Could this be a dictation
Of some other
Thoughtful fixation

Could it be so wrong
It's so right
I'll give you the answer
Tomorrow night

CHORUS
