[Verse 1]
Heart’s on fire but my lips stay sealed
Words in my throat like a sword and shield
I see her smile and my brain just trips
But my tongue’s in knots can’t let it slip
[Chorus]
Oh girl I’m tongue tied spinning in my mind
Trying to find the words but they’re hard to find
Oh girl I’m tongue tied every time you’re near
Caught up in the moment but I’m stuck in fear
[Verse 2]
She’s the sun on a cloudy day
But my voice keeps running away
I rehearse my lines in my mirror all night
But when she’s around I lose the fight
[Bridge]
Heartbeat racing like a drumline's roll
Her laugh echoes deep in my soul
If I could just say it I’d feel alive
But my courage is taking a nosedive
[Chorus]
Oh girl I’m tongue tied spinning in my mind
Trying to find the words but they’re hard to find
Oh girl I’m tongue tied every time you’re near
Caught up in the moment but I’m stuck in fear
[Verse 3]
I’ve got a hundred ways I could confess
But each time I see her it’s a verbal mess
Fingers tapping like a nervous beat
Hoping one day my words will meet
