Tell Him Now

Ooh

I still like that emo boy who hides behind a smile,

Black jacket, late-night songs, he lingers for a while.

I keep rehearsing lines I never say out loud,

Heart in a paper cup, I’m standing in the crowd.

I want to tell him, want to tell him now,

That every quiet look pulls me somehow.

Say it simple, let the world slow down,

I want to tell him, want to tell him now.

He writes his feelings in the margins of his nights,

I trace the faded ink and wonder if it’s right.

The words get tangled when he walks my way,

So I tuck my courage in the songs I play.

I want to tell him, want to tell him now,

That every quiet look pulls me somehow.

Say it simple, let the world slow down,

I want to tell him, want to tell him now.

Maybe tomorrow I’ll find the voice I’ve kept inside,

No more waiting in the shadows where my shy thoughts hide.

If I reach for him, maybe he’ll reach too,

And two lonely hearts can start something true.

I want to tell him, want to tell him now,

That every quiet look pulls me somehow.

Say it simple, let the world slow down,

I want to tell him, want to tell him now.

I just want to tell him,tell him that I love him. Tell him that I love him.
