Story Behind The Song

Imagine two people on stage, sitting next to each other. They laugh and suddenly freeze. The narrator begins her soliloquy - addressing the other person, though he cannot hear her.

Song Description

A song about crushing hard on a good friend and the combined joy, nervousness, excitement, and wondering that comes with it.

Lyrics

Oh my god! Your smile...is intoxicating
Almost as much as your fingers on my skin
Though I wouldn't really know
We don't touch all that often
Which is fine, I don't really mind
Well, I do but I don't
What I mean is...
I'm just happy to be with you
And your smile is enough on its own

And your eyes. Holy crap! I mean, we have these moments
Where the conversation stops
And I see your gears turning and feel like I'm learning you
Feel like I'm seeing YOU
And I see you in this whole new light
And my heart starts to pound
God, I love your mind and
Also your eyes

You're so goddamn beautiful
I need to stare at the sun for comfort
And every time I see you I'm so excited
I could live on the adrenaline of just knowing you

You see, over there, the sky meets the ocean
They appear to be touching, can we say that they are?
And the sky makes the ocean blue
Or, is it the ocean makes the sky?
Oh shit, I don't really remember
But either way they share their color
We could be a horizon
If you wanted to

Oh god, I'm being so impatient
I'm sorry, I really try not to be
It's just that I have this big imagination and
Sometimes you're there
But I try not to put too much stock in my fantasies
So that I can enjoy your reality
But, sometimes I just wonder
Sometimes I just want to
Some time to just reach out and
Grab your hand
