lyrics

This is different for me and you don't know I'm practicing
for every time you catch my eye,
when you smile, when you sing.

I've been keeping my distance. You're keeping yours too.
But how far is close enough when I've still found you in my room
most nights this week? Nobody even knows we speak, but I know.

This is what I need right now.

And you said, "I don't really think that I see this going anywhere."
I understand how you are feeling.
I'm aware that you only broke up with her three months ago.
And all I'm getting out of you is let's move slow.
But I feel it in my gut and I think you know.

This is what I need right now.

I know it's temporary.
I know it's not forever.
You feel safe for me.
I know it's not forever and when it ends I'll say, "I'm sorry."

But this is what I need right now.

So let me clarify what I said before
I know where this is going and I don't want more
but i'm glad we're on the same page
and I know the feeling's contagious
and we're feeling like teenagers
so I pressed a button for my heart to disengage...

Because this is what I need right now, and you are the only one I want to be with right now.

Because this is different for me and you don't know I'm practicing
for every time you catch my eye,
when you smile, when you sing.

I've been keeping my distance. You're keeping yours too.
But how far is close enough when I've still found you in my room
most nights this week? Nobody even knows we speak, but I know.
