[Verse 1]

You make me nervous just by being here

Maybe I'll disappear, sneak myself away, chin on my chest

Just anything, just get me out of here

I'm going

The problem is the thought of you has got me grinning ear to ear

I'm overthinking it, walking out the door

And why can't I go through with it?

You're back inside, where am I going?


[Pre-Chorus]

I'll rip the wings off these butterflies

They make me say things I don't mean, things I don't mean

Being so knotted up inside

Something that I don't need, that I don't need but


[Chorus]

Suddenly you're standing there in front of me, I'm crushing hard

What if we dive into a love affair right into each other's arms

Oh, not a single person on the planet coulda ever swapped

Could've ever swapped

Could've ever swapped


[Verse 2]

And I don't know what to say so I say something that I immediately regret

And I have no idea what I said

And I become momentarily obsessed with what I've eaten, whether that's all up in my breathe

Fuck, just be cool, calm, collected

If it were that easy if I weren't bound to this harness

Immersed in wherever leads me so I'm charging in open-hearted

Propelled by the rate it's beating, and I know that I can be charming

But there are moments all of it leaves me, then our eyes lock and I ask "How was your evenin'?"


[Pre-Chorus 2]

And I wanna rip wings off butterflies that stop me from saying what I really mean

Stop me from saying what I really mean, stop me from saying what I really mean

Why am I so knotted up inside, these sweaty palms that I don't need

I'm all at sea and you took my hand and took the lead


[Chorus]

Suddenly you're standing there in front of me, I'm crushing hard

What if we dive into a love affair right into each other's arms

Oh, not a single person on the planet coulda ever swapped

Could've ever swapped

Could've ever swapped


[Outro]

This is just crazy, gliding into a daydream when really

I know we've got nothing at all

And there's a glimmer in your eyes as we shake hands

And the kind of smile that makes me wanna change plans

I'm not so sure we've got nothing at all

Uh, uh, I'm not so sure we've got nothing at all
