What are We? A Maybe.

Not Sure. I guess that’s how I would describe us How I would describe my stance with you Are we a we? Is there an us? I feel like there could be Should be, you see I feel pretty natural around you “I’ve never been with a girl I can just be myself around,” Well what’s holding us back? Let’s dive into this thing head on Oh but…but… There are a lot of “buts” between us But we don’t live in the same city But you’re afraid and nervous of commitment But you lose interest in women easily But it’s just not a good time in our lives “I want to be your boyfriend but,” It sometimes feels as if my happiness with you is on the other side Of a tightrope I’m struggling to keep balance on Or more specifically it’s the distance between San Antonio and Austin on 35 And I hope I’m not dodging all those 18-wheelers for you Only to get dumped in the end But I also know that happiness with you is as simple as eating Blue Bell On a lazy Tuesday afternoon in your bed Or teasing you in the soda aisle of HEB for your Single-guy gamer-esque love of Mountain Dew Happiness with you is as simple as laying my head on your chest In the middle of Zilker Park with stars and Downtown Austin in the background Or playing Smash Brothers in your living room Happiness with you is even as simple as hearing your hearty laughter It’s more contagious than you probably realize I just keep thinking it feels so right Whatever this is between me and you But relationships are a risk, no matter how they’re pursued Maybe this is for real, but it could just be temporary I don’t really care quite honestly I just want to soak up every moment with you
