The air was still when we first met
And she held my gaze
And I held my breath with all my mind
It felt like hours, or maybe days
But when I close my eyes, I see her face
I see her face, yeah

And it made me ill, to look away
And it hurts me still
Cus there's so much more I'd like to say
But I lose my nerve
When it comes to giving you the love
That you deserve, so take my weak heart
Oh take my weak heart
And tie it to yours

So if I fall, I fall for her
And she don't know
That I think she's beautiful
Cus I always choke
And the right words come out all wrong
But I swear I love you
I'm sorry it took so long
But to tell you, to tell you this

And they're only words, they mean so much
And I'm always scared
That I'll make things worse
If its all it takes, is letting go
When you are sure of everything
Just let me know
Take my weak heart
And tie it to yours

So if I fall, I fall for her
And she don't know
That I think she's beautiful
Cus I always choke
And the right words come out all wrong
But I swear I love you
I'm sorry it took so long
But to tell you, oh, to tell you this
