I feel so helpless now
My guitar is not around
And I'm struggling with the xylophone
To make these feelings sound
And I'm remembering you singing
And bringin' you to life
It's raining out the window
And today it looks like night
You haven't written to me in a week
I'm wondering why that is
Are you too nervous to be lovers
Friendship's ruined with just one kiss?
I watched you very closely, I saw you look away
Your eyes are either gray or blue
I'm never close enough to say
But your sweatshirt says it all
With the hood over your face
I can't keep starin' at your mouth
Without wonderin' how it tastes
I'm with another boy
(He's asleep, I'm wide awake )
And he tried to win my heart
But it's taken
(Time...)
I know the shape of your hands
Because I watch 'em when you talk
And I know the shape of your body
'Cause I watch it when you walk
And I want to know it all
But I'm giving you the lead
So go on, go on and take it
Don't fake it, shake it
(Charming
Crazy eyes have you
Are they gray or blue?
I won't make the move
You must make the move
If you make the move
I will then approve
If you do not move
We will surely lose...)
Don't second-guess your feelings
You were right from the start
And I notice she's your lover
But she's nowhere near your heart
This city is for strangers
Like the sky is for the stars
But I think it's very dangerous
If we do not take what's ours
And I'm winning you with words
Because I have no other way
I'd love to look into your face
Without your eyes turning away
Last night I watched you sing
Because a person has to try
And I walked home in the rain
Because a person cannot lie...
My guitar is not around
And I'm struggling with the xylophone
To make these feelings sound
And I'm remembering you singing
And bringin' you to life
It's raining out the window
And today it looks like night
You haven't written to me in a week
I'm wondering why that is
Are you too nervous to be lovers
Friendship's ruined with just one kiss?
I watched you very closely, I saw you look away
Your eyes are either gray or blue
I'm never close enough to say
But your sweatshirt says it all
With the hood over your face
I can't keep starin' at your mouth
Without wonderin' how it tastes
I'm with another boy
(He's asleep, I'm wide awake )
And he tried to win my heart
But it's taken
(Time...)
I know the shape of your hands
Because I watch 'em when you talk
And I know the shape of your body
'Cause I watch it when you walk
And I want to know it all
But I'm giving you the lead
So go on, go on and take it
Don't fake it, shake it
(Charming
Crazy eyes have you
Are they gray or blue?
I won't make the move

Because a person cannot lie...

I see a lovely young lady who meets a guy that takes her breath away with the comfort and ease of the relationship. They become friends and the guy of course pursues more until she denies him because she forgot to mention she was already in a relationship. Unfortunately, he has already kissed her and let her know he feels. So he has to back away to the point where he jumps into something with someone else just so he doesnt have to spend the days thinking of her not with him. It's obvious to her it's not the same as it was with her. This in turn causes her to reflect on her own relationship when she realizes she is in something that is missing that special chemistry or spark she had with him also. So now she sits there with the distance between them that he put and she caused, hoping he would come back to the moment and feeling where he was knocking on her doorstep asking for her to let him in.
Simply stated by true... Loving this song.
D':
Stupid guys. XD but really, just confess. We're shy too....wahahahahahawahaha, wahahahahahawahaha, not fair :'( Be a man...lol, that's mean...
Why Keegan, why? I liked you too!!!!!! Wahahahahahawahaha
I agree with the comments that said it's about someone liking another person, but doesn't allow the relationship go anywhere. NOT, tears of joy :'(
She had a friend who she fell madly in love with and she knew even he liked her.. Something happened , they kissed and made out.. and Then I think the guy got afraid.. She knows that somewehere deep down in his heart this boy loves her but he's too scared to accept it and so he's a got himself a new girlfriend to get his mind of her...
Even she got a boyfriend but she's still waiting for him to realise he still loves her. She thinks she will definately get him back one day but till then she is just waiting and being with the wrong guy.
she also says that she's tried enough to be with him and that if he wants to be with her too he will take chances and make it happen.. (i will not move, if u do not move we will surely lose - these lines come in the background)
