What I'm about to say will take the kind of courage used to
Cut a wire from a bomb
The kinds of things that you will hear will resemble
A bottle of wine fermented too long
My mouth is dry, I'm up in the sky,
My stomach's starting to dance, dance
Before I die, I have to try,
I have to take this chance
But oh, there's a risk that you'd go away
From the friendship we're enjoying right now
But oh there's regret if we throw away
The more-than-friendship we'd be missing somehow
So I was thinking maybe later you would want to go out?
Walk and talk around the Oval as usual, asking what life is about
Maybe I'd tell you that the couple years
we've spent together touched my life to the core
Maybe I'd tell you that I love you, and I want to love you more
Tell me tell me tell me tell me tell me how to get to you
Tell me tell me tell me tell me tell me what I have to do
And if you're listening and thinking "Is this song about me?"
Well, maybe maybe maybe maybe
And oh, you are a work of art
I'm captivated by the things that you do
Though I'm jealous of the man who tried to win your heart
My goal is that he'd envy me too
So I was thinking maybe later you would want to go out?
We could walk, and talk, and travel, read, and watch, and figure out what life is about
Maybe I'd tell you that the couple years we've spent together proved our friendship true
Maybe I'd tell you that I love you,
Oh maybe it's time you knew
I know for certain that I love you
And I hope you love me too
