Obviously Obvious

VERSE 1

You were dropping hints like neon lights,

Waving flags the size of satellites.

I thought you were just being nice —

Turns out you were flirting for your life.

You laughed at all my stupid jokes,

Stood too close, stole all my coats.

I thought, “Wow, she’s friendly, that’s dope.”

Meanwhile you were screaming, “HELLO?”

PRE‑CHORUS

Looking back, I swear it’s tragic —

You were magic, I was… average.

Every sign was clear as day,

But somehow I still looked away.

CHORUS

You were obviously obvious,

And I was obviously oblivious.

You said “come over,” I said “why?”

You rolled your eyes and let it slide.

If I caught the clues you threw,

We’d have been us way sooner too.

You were obviously obvious —

And I was obviously… me.

VERSE 2

You liked my posts at 2 AM,

I thought you just had insomnia then.

You touched my arm, I froze again —

Didn’t know that meant “I like him.”

You asked if I believed in fate,

I said “eh, depends on the day.”

You sighed so loud the room would shake —

Girl, how’d you put up with this brain?

PRE‑CHORUS

Looking back, it’s kinda funny —

You were honey, I was dummy.

Every sign was bold and bright,

But somehow I still missed the light.

CHORUS

You were obviously obvious,

And I was obviously oblivious.

You said “I’m cold,” I gave my hoodie —

Didn’t know that meant “please choose me.”

If I caught the clues you threw,

We’d have been us way sooner too.

You were obviously obvious —

And I was obviously… me.

BRIDGE

Now I see it crystal clear,

Every hint from every year.

You liked me first — that much is true,

I just didn’t know what to do.

But somehow you still stuck around,

Waited for my brain to come back down.

And now that I finally caught the sign —

I’m yours, and you’re mine.

FINAL CHORUS

You were obviously obvious,

And I was obviously oblivious.

You said “I like you,” I said “really?”

You laughed so hard you damn near killed me.

If I caught the clues you threw,

We’d have been us way sooner too.

You were obviously obvious —

But I’m glad you waited for me.
