Lyrics

What Gave it Away
Music & Lyrics by Adam Groden

VERSE
I?ve never been the kind of guy
Who knew just what to say.
It?s not like I?m so proud of that
I wish I weren?t that way.

The feelings that I?ve had for you,
I?ve never talked about.
But it?s plain to see, when you look at me,
You figured it out.

CHORUS
What gave it away? Tell me please.
Was it the way my tongue got tied?
Maybe you heard me when I sighed?
When did my feelings start to show?

How did you know that I cared?
Was it my lost and lonesome look?
I guess you read me like a book.
What gave it away?

VERSE
That you should know what?s on my mind,
Is easy to believe.
?Cause even when we say hello,
My heart jumps to my sleeve.

I wish that I had come right out
And laid it on the line.
But since you suspect, I guess I?ll
Be more direct:
I think that you?re fine.

CHORUS
What gave it away? Tell me please.
Was it the way my tongue got tied?
Maybe you heard me when I sighed?
When did my feelings start to show?

How did you know that I cared?
Was it my lost and lonesome look?
I guess you read me like a book.
What gave it away?

BRIDGE
Was I delirious?
Did I think that I couldn?t be seen?
Was I as subtle as a schoolboy with a
Crush on the homecoming queen?
Well I?m serious.
?Cause I?ve never ever felt this way.
And before too long, by the
End of this song,
There?s something that I?d like to say.

VERSE
That you should know what?s on my mind,
Is easy to believe.
?Cause even when we say hello,
My heart jumps to my sleeve.

I wish that I had come right out
And laid it on the line.
But now that it?s known, now that my
cover is blown.
I?m gonna make you mine, all mine.

CHORUS
What gave it away? Tell me please.
Was it the way my tongue got tied?
Maybe you heard me when I sighed?
When did my feelings start to show?

How did you know that I cared?
Was it my lost and lonesome look?
I guess you read me like a book.
What gave it away?
What gave it away?
What gave it away?
