Lyrics
all you kids in the midwest: get down.
first verse:
i can't believe that you're next to me/yeah, i'm in shock.
my heart's been dragging me around the block.
we're finally up next in line and i'm on fire.
and tired from thinking about you all the time.
but i'm inspired to take your hand and take you away.
and up the stairs and through the hall and over some chairs.
and you know what?
i wish you'd hurry and down that drink.
'cause i'm waiting for the right time for something to say.
first chorus:
when i'm with you you strike a nerve.
i wanna be the man that you deserve.
and touch you back.
if the offer stands, do i have a chance?
and don't stop now.
if you can't decide then give me a dance.
second verse:
i can't believe that you got kicked out/yeah, i'm in shock.
so now i'm chasing you down the block.
and on the way i pick up a rose.
some homeless guy just scammed me then
with a homeless lie/but you don't care.
you're just happy here, just you and me.
outside your car and in your eyes i can see a star.
and don't take this the wrong way
but i'm gonna miss you really bad when you...
that was our first kiss.
first chorus.
second chorus:
though you're with him you strike a chord.
i highly doubt you should be so torn, so don't hold back.
the offer stands, i'll give you a chance, and don't stop then.
to help you decide give me a dance.
third verse:
we need to stop this here and now.
if you wanna dance/then show me how.
you're so close and you're whispering.
you sound like a dream/i can't wake up.
you're better than you could ever seem.
first chorus.
first and second chorus at the same time (twice).
