lyrics

I can’t ever easily look in the eyes
Of whoever I happen to glamorize

If you've ever noticed this
Could you possibly take the first step, please?
You already have the keys
I left them for you when we met so you can seize

It’s been a year, don’t you understand?
This is not how I hope we would stand
Take both my hands sentimentally

It’s pretty clear, don’t you understand?
I like your sweater, I think they are grand
Take all my praises with some empathy

I don’t think I really wanna iterate
When I say this is what I anticipate

I was hoping you have noticed this
Could you possibly take the first step, please?
You already have the keys
I left them for you when we met so you can seize

It’s been a year, don’t you understand?
This is not how I hope we would stand
Take both my hands sentimentally

It’s pretty clear, don’t you understand
I like your sweater, I think they are grand
Take all my praises with some empathy

It’s been a year, don’t you understand
This is not how I hope we would stand
Take both my hands sentimentally

It’s pretty clear, don’t you understand?
I like your sweater, I think they are grand
Take all my praises with some empathy
