When we speak i find it hard to think straight
Especially when there's no one else around

But I Cstill want to Gsing with Fyou

When we meet i listen to your heartbeat
I can hear the rhythm and the tone
Every time i listen to me heart
Its like a cartwheel in my head but my legs are made of lead
When we speak i find it hard to think straight
Especially when there's no one else around
When we touch its impossible to concentrate
Bright lights everywhere, like i'm floating in the air
Your heartbeat song, its good but its not the one
were singing out of tune, but i still want to sing with you
