(Verse 1)
Walking down the hallway, the bell rings at 8 AM
Got my boots shined up and I'm ready for the day again
See you in the formation, standing straight and tall
Didn't know that JROTC could make me feel this way at all
But when you call out cadence, a rhythm starts to beat
My heart's a little louder, feels like I'm on two left feet
(Chorus)
'Cause you're the one in camo, a star on your shoulder
Every time I see you, my worries just get colder
Yeah, you're a natural leader, and I'm just trying to keep my cool
Trying to find the courage, to break all of these rules
Marching to a rhythm, that's just for me and you
Hoping that you feel it too, in this sea of army green and blue
(Verse 2)
Inspection's coming, checking every single crease
I'm checking you out, hoping no one else sees
The way you tie your cravat, a perfect little knot
You've got that dedication, that I swear I haven't got
But maybe that's the reason, I look up to you so much
Every single detail, every look, every single touch
(Chorus)
'Cause you're the one in camo, a star on your shoulder
Every time I see you, my worries just get colder
Yeah, you're a natural leader, and I'm just trying to keep my cool
Trying to find the courage, to break all of these rules
Marching to a rhythm, that's just for me and you
Hoping that you feel it too, in this sea of army green and blue
(Bridge)
They say that love is a battlefield, maybe that's why it's so real
When we're in this uniform, and it's just the way I feel
A silent admiration, a secret that I keep
Hoping one day you'll know, my feelings are this deep
(Outro)
So I'll keep marching on, with my head held high
Underneath this army hat, just thinking of you and I
In this sea of green and blue, I'm hoping you see me too
Hoping that you feel it, this feeling that is so new.
