Years of unsent love letters
About how she gets me high and makes my heart flutter
She told me for the first time tonight
That she liked the look of me
When I was stood at the bar in a suit and tie
Trying to play it cool so casually
Professing when she walked over
That I’ve always been this camera shy
But the only thing I was scared of was,
Getting close to her

It’s final orders so I guess we have to leave
The last thing I want
While she’s taken the time to confide in me
Where she falls asleep on my shoulder
Only seconds after she cried
Over a boy who couldn’t treat her right
And in that moment, yeah
I nearly died
Wondering if this was everything I’d been hoping for
All my life

No offence but all offence at the same time
Why have I spent so long trying to make you mine?
Because you’ve always taken me for granted
And I know I’m more deserving
But every first and last thought I have
Always comes back to you...
More fool me

Protecting ourselves from the pouring rain
I’m so nervous I begin to laugh
If you knew me better
You’d know I always do that
And it might look like I’m not paying attention
Whilst I stare into space
But I’m just thinking for a second
About how you might taste
And If I make a move,
Would you kiss me back?
Or tell me I’ll never be right for you
And I don’t know if I want to risk all that

No offence but all offence at the same time
Why have I spent so long trying to make you mine?
Because you’ve always taken me for granted
And I know I’m more deserving
But every first and last thought I have
Always comes back to you
..
Sometimes the ones you love, cause the most pain
