lyrics
"It's not allowed" you say, no it's against the rules
So we'll just tiptoe around this in a match of who can keep their cool.
Let the tension build, although we both can see
This rubber band cannot withstand, it's gonna snap eventually.
I'm not gon' push you to go for what you seem to want,
But if it's me I beg and plead for you to cut this bullshit front.
I spent the whole week trying to no avail
To get you out of my mind 'cause this thing just feels so right.
'Cause you've got me twisted, but this could be it, babe.
You've got nothing to lose, so if it's me for you please tell me so we can be
Friends to lovers, finally.
I know it's sort of strange, uncharted territory,
But boy, I know you too well;
Stop giving me hell and tell me honestly
If this is crossing a boundary that you wish to keep
I may be reading you wrong, so I need you to spell it out for me.
Those cryptic kisses
Soaked with liquor
Rendering them blurry figments
Falling somewhere in between
Somewhat significant
Or empty bygone sweet nothings
They meant something to me...
The rest is all on you,
Got me twisted, but this could be it, babe.
You've got nothing to lose, so if it's me for you please tell me so we can be
Friends to lovers, finally, instantly,
It's destiny, baby, meant to be,
Naturally, perfectly,
Me for you and you for me.
Necessarily destined to happen so happily solving the mystery.
This is so tangible how could it possibly
Be only in my head, driving me to the brink of insanity?
Oh, you...
Got me twisted, but this could be it, babe.
You've got nothing to lose, so if it's me for you please tell me so we can be
Friends to lovers, finally.
