The falling begins rather suddenly, I am here waiting again,
I think I ******* up this time, I really do believe.
I had the chance, to grab you by the hand,
and tell you everything my timid heart had to give, but I stuttered, stuttered, stuttered.

Now I'm like: Please! Please! I know you might be busy today,
if so I'll go away, but please, just let me speak to you.

I don't know, how it's going to feel tonight, when I watched you walk out,
it felt like you were walking out of my life.
I know the phrase, β€œI'll see you around”,
means goodbye is not forever, but I feel like it somehow.
I don't want to let you go, but your talents grow, so I want you to discover, discover, discover.

Now I'm like: Please! Please! I know you might be busy today,
if so I'll go away, but please just let me speak to you.

I have learned to love again, after five months of pain,
when you speak, my heart is racing,
we'll be there one by one, fighting until the sun goes down.
I will see Ra who will grasp my hands,
and offer me the role of Anubis.

Pause. Don't say anything. You might stutter again.
Don't look at me that way, we know how it should end,
it's not over quite yet.

Now I'm like: Please! Please! I know you might be busy today,
if so I'll go away, but please just let me tell you how I feel.

Please Please! I am feeling this heartbeat super increase into an incredible beat,
like the ones we played through days and nights of our lives.
