It's something about the way you walk,
And most definitely the way you talk.
That sweet voice perks my ears up.
I listen.
Without missing a word.
Is it absurd that I've grown so fond, this quickly?
Questions me if I'm wrong,
Please let me know if I'm wrong.
I can't shake this feeling.
Like a bad habit,
I'm attracted to you.
The same way mosquitoes get zapped!
Don't zap me.
I'll linger for as long as I have to—
Until you free fall for love.
No price tags attached.
If you give me that rap about
The past man.
I'll show you how much he lost.
To me, you are worth more than worth.
I'm being honest.
Isn't that a nice change?
An honest man, may he be compatible
With an honest woman?
Is it that actual?
Can my actions take place?
If you embrace these thoughts—
We can make these thoughts
Become reality.
Actions, actuality,
Your personality is what beckons me to
Reckon if I have a chance.
I reckon I should demand it.
You're sweet,
I won't come off too mannish.
In fact, it's not like I could
Scoop you if I planned it.
