i think i caught you staring in my direction
now i'm filled with burning affection
for you
and i don't know what to do
so what are we?
you touched my hand once
now i'm convinced that we're in love
you usually smile at me
you're so cute i'm gonna go crazy
so what are we?
these mixed signals will be the death of me
so please
just tell me
so what are we?
what are we?
tell me what are we?

Sweet Peach

you are an infinite summertime
painting my cheeks pink with your heart's sunrise
you make me feel warm and peach fuzzy
with all the ways you love me
i bloom under the light of your smile
the butterflies in my stomach flutter wild
summer skies dance in our minds
with peachy shades of love intertwined
your aura is brighter than a sunbeam
i look at you and learn how to dream
i call you my peach
for nobody else could be as sweet
we paint sticky skies with the love in our eyes
shades of orange and pink caressing our minds
you set my heart afire with your summer heat
dripping with love like the juiciest peach
your aura is brighter than a sunbeam
i look at you and learn how to dream
i call you my peach
for nobody else could be as sweet
before you, my heart was a lonely pit
rough shelled and poisonous
you cracked open the seed
and blossomed words of love inside of me
i bloom with our peach bliss in my life
saccharine skies in the horizon of my mind
your aura is brighter than a sunbeam
i look at you and learn how to dream
i call you my peach
for nobody else could be as sweet
as you

we could get a brownstone in brooklyn
it might be too expensive
but we could make it work
we would be in debt
but my love will never end
and im not trying to flirt
we could get a little kitty
and name it howdy
we would be a family
we can walk through central park
ill hold onto you in the dark
we can gaze at the fake stars
i watch them twinkle in your eyes
and i feel full of love and alive
on our new york city night
i just wanna dance with you
down fifth avenue
the taxis and the traffic sing love songs
of congestion for just us two
i wonder if you can hear the symphony inside me
it looks at you and sings “i love you like new york city”
me and you, manhattan and back, forever
this city shines brighter when were together
me and you, hearts dancing and dizzy
because i love you like new york city

Damned to Dream

i feel pathetic
i've never been kissed
i've never even been in a relationship
everyone's grown up
but i feel stuck
because i've never had
mutual romantic love
i hope i'm not just damned to dream about it
i just wanna feel what requited love is
i wanna be someone's everything
i wanna make their heart sing
i wanna make them proud of who they're loving
i hope i'm not just damned to dream about love
i've always got so much to say
but nobody's felt the same way
i keep on writing page after page
of stupid love songs
i wonder if i did something wrong
cause i've been yearning for so long
is it coming?
i'll keep waiting
or maybe i'm supposed to
spend forever singing
about how i think it feels
and wonder if it's real
i hope it's real
cause it's all that i can feel
i hope i'm not just damned to dream about it
i just wanna feel what requited love is
i wanna be someone's everything
i wanna make their heart sing
i wanna make them proud of who they're loving
i hope i'm not just damned to dream about love
i'll wait forever
cause hope's all i have
even if all it does
is make me sad
wonder if i'm love deprived
to save it for the love of my life
and we’ll run away into the night
and if they do exist
it will all make sense
and i'll never be lonely ever again
i keep that hope in the back of my mind
daydreaming through life to stay alive
i remember it's not the present
and i get upset
so here i go again
back to pretend
i hope i'm not just damned to dream about it
i just wanna feel what requited love is
i wanna be someone's everything
i wanna make their heart sing
i wanna make them proud of who they're loving
i hope i'm not just damned to dream about love
