Back seats and sunsets
Dirt in my hair and a sundress
And your guitar's playin' sweet tunes
And I'm singin' along right next to you
Campfires and the bright moon
Neither can shine the way that you do
And I'm crazy
This is all in my head
'Cause the truth is it hasn't happened yet
'Cause it's dangerous falling in love with a stranger
'Cause it's dangerous falling in love with a stranger
Tossing at midnight
Feels like I knew you in another life
A parallel universe where these aren't just random lines
And a song my heart keeps telling me I have to write
And I don't know why
'Cause it's dangerous falling in love with a stranger
'Cause it's dangerous falling in love with a stranger
Why do I do this to myself?
Why do I do this to myself?
Why do I do this to myself?
Why do I do this to myself?
Why do I do this to myself?
Why do I do this to myself?
'Cause it's dangerous falling in love with a stranger

Poison

You have a way of getting in my head
And I don't wanna come on too strong
But there's something in the way you talk
In the way you smile
That's been haunting me since I've been gone
And the timing, ohhh, couldn't be more wrong
And I've tried to ignore it
Tried to push it away with a song
So I'll hide behind lyrics
And short conversation
I'm scared to admit that I've got a fixation on you
I don't know how to read you
Do you feel the same?
'Cause I feel kind of crazy for feeling this way
Oh it's true
But I'm no good
And I don't want to poison you
I'm no good
And I don't want to poison you

Forget About It

There's a girl waiting to be noticed by you
She's got flowers in her hair and she is quiet
And she thinks you see right through... her
But she has made you laugh
More times than you can count
And she has always been the friend you need
When you are feeling down
And you think she's really pretty
But you can't figure her out
There's no way she likes you too
Forget about it
There's a boy
He dreams of you at night
And he doesn't know he's the one who's on your mind
He acts so normal every time you come around
There must be nothing there
So you never tell him how
You think he shines
And when you're next to him you almost fall apart
You just wanna hold his hand
And you start to feel your heart
Because it's racing... his is too
But you're not close enough to feel it
You bite your lip before you lose it
You wanna scream "I love you
and you're everything I need
to get me through this fucked up life"
But you think he'll never see you
He's staring at the ground
'Cause he can't look you in the eye
He's scared you're gonna see right through him
But you think he looks tired
So you go to say "goodnight"
But you really wanna stay
And he won't put up a fight
He doesn't know you feel that way
Forget about it
They were sitting on a park bench
She said "I really think I gotta tell you something
but I don't want you to run,
but I think that you're the one.
I've been staying up all night 'cause I got you on my mind
and I didn't wanna tell you 'cause you seem like you're fine
with just being my friend, but I just can't pretend,
'cause when you look at me like that
I swear it's all I can take...
been tryin' to forget about it but I can't fake it anymore...
you're the one that I've been waiting for."
She looked at him with sad eyes...
Thought she knew what he would say
But he took her by the hand
Said "I've been waiting for this day"

Always Been You

You've haunted me long enough
It's time to tell the truth
I don't think I'm strong enough
To stay away from you
We twist and we turn
And we kiss and we burn
We don't know where to start
So we love in the dark 'til the day
It's never been clear
We both hide behind fear
So I drink way too much
'Til I finally know what to say
But I'm not lying when I tell you you're the only one
I know I've made mistakes
And denying how we feel is not good for anyone
And I've never felt this way
It's always been you
It's always been you
It's always been...
We're always warned not to fall in love
Well I think that it's too late
'Cause the thoughts in my mind
Are of you all the time
And I can't turn it off
And I know that you're feeling the same
And I've been so confused
Trying to figure out you
It's been hurting a lot
So that's why I've been acting this way
But I'm not lying when I tell you you're the only one
I know I've made mistakes
But denying how we feel is not good for anyone
And I've never felt this way
It's always been you
It's always been you
It's always been you
It's always been you
it's always been...
