She knows exactly what to do
Whenever I'm alone with her
I can barely make a move
By the time she opens up her eyes
She sings to me at night
She's singing
(Ba da ba ba ba da ba ba da ba da)
(Ba da ba ba ba da ba ba da ba da)

I know that she barely knows me
I'm not faking love with her
It's like I'm singing Karaoke
And I forgot the second verse
But I can make up my own words

Oh, Dakota
I know our love is new
I barely know ya
I've fallen over you
It's the way you do the things you do
That make me fall in love with you
Dakota, are you in love with me too?

She's got a little bit of money
And a little bit of this
And it's all she needs to live
I got a little bit of love
And a little bit of that
And it's all I have to give

This time I'll try no to show
That I am not letting go

Oh, Dakota
I know our love is new
I barely know ya
I've fallen over you
It's the way you do the things you do
That make me fall in love with you
Dakota, are you in love with me too?

I'll show ya, I'll show ya
And you'll know and you'll know
I'm not letting go
I'll show ya, I'll show ya
And you'll know and you'll know
I'm not letting go

(Ba da ba ba ba da ba ba da ba da)
(Ba da ba ba ba da ba ba da ba da)

Oh, Dakota
I know our love is new
I barely know ya
I've fallen over you
It's the way you do the things you do
That make me fall in love with you
Dakota, are you in love with me too?

Oh, Dakota
I know our love is new
I barely know ya
I've fallen over you
It's the way you do the things you do
That make me fall in love with you
Dakota, are you in love with me too?

I'm in love with you
Are you in love with me too?

    General Comment:This was on the EP, right, or no? Anyhow, I lovedddd the album that this was on. I hate to say it, but I like it better than their newest album. Their new one is still amazing, however, nothing beats the first.
    This song is really good. I would like to here the story behind it.

    General Comment:This bit right here,

    "It's like I'm singing karaoke
    And I forgot the second verse
    But I, can make up my own words
    Oh Dakota, I know our love is new
    I barely know ya..."

    I just imagine the karaoke bar. This guy is singing a song, he forgets the words and he just decides to sing to her instead. I just think that's crazy romantic. That would win me over any day!

    General Comment:I like the version from "Greetings From..." better than the one from "On Your Side".
    I don't know why, I just find them different...
    Nick puts more feeling in to the "Greetings From"-one.

    General Comment:This song is adorble. It makes me think of when you first meet someone, and you and that person really click. Like insanely well, and you almost thing that you could be in love w/ that person. Even though it is impossible, bc you just met them, and you barely know them.
