Literature Text

I've never had my heart skip this many beats
And I know I've never forgotten how to breathe
Until now

I can't remember the last time that I couldn't speak
And I don't remember my heart ever feeling this weak
Until now...

Your eyes hypnotize my heart
Your laugh captures my soul
Your smile makes me melt
And you make me feel whole..
I know we aren't even together
But I know that I have never
Felt closer to anyone
Anyone..
Your voice does something to me
And I forget how to breathe
I forget how to breathe

I know I've always been the quiet type
I know I've always been a little bit shy
Around you

But I need to find the words to
Come right out and just tell you
How I feel...
About you

Your eyes hypnotize my heart
Your laugh captures my soul
Your smile makes me melt
And you make me feel whole..
I know we aren't even together
But I know that I have never
Felt closer to anyone
Anyone..
Your voice does something to me
And I forget how to breathe
I forget how to breathe

I can't get rid of these butterflies
That are keeping my emotions locked up inside
They're hold on tight and won't let go

They carry fragments of my soul
The parts of me that make me whole
And if I lose my dignity, what will I have left to hold?

You don't know how badly I want to tell you
But I don't know if you'd understand
Or if you'd feel the same way
Would you just walk away and laugh?

You don't know how badly I want to hold you
But I don't know if you're pride will get in the way
I know I may not be your first choice
But at least give me a chance to say:

Your eyes hypnotize my heart
Your laugh captures my soul
Your smile makes me melt
And you make me feel whole..
I know we aren't even together
But I know that I have never
Felt closer to anyone
Anyone..
Your voice does something to me
And I forget how to breathe
I forget how to breathe

Don't you know
Whenever you're around
You do something to me...

You make me forget how to breathe
