lyrics

things move a little faster with each day / courting disaster you display your fondness for me carefully / but you really should think twice about how you feel / who you like / and what you dream
I don't flirt purposefully / just not my style / besides I don't think I can do much else than smile /
and I've found this only works for a little while / it only works for those first greetings / theaters are now seating for a show starring me / and my specialties include blushing and stumbling on screen

things move a little faster with each day / courting disaster I display my fondness for you carefully / but I really should think twice about how I feel / who I like / and what I dream

sometimes I stare / ‘cause you can be attractive / but it's far more likely you're just being distractive / you're like rhythms from the floor above / you're the puppy I want to pet but can't love / fun of cuddling will wane making what we have strained / yes, I'm sorry about my accidental innuendoes / I'm surprised you don't complain

just think of how if we start / the many ways it can end / and how right about now we could both use a friend

opposites will attract one way or another / we sway / seek each other's shoulders and just lean /
now that we've thought twice about how we feel / who we like / and what we dream / we can dream / just dream
