You're coming over, I started takin'
Breaths 'cause I was too anxious
Too much to take in, years in the making, no, ooh
No melatonin, no meditation
Can ease my anticipation
No drink I'm making's helping the waiting, no, ooh
It's you, boy
I'm cool like an icicle 'til I see you, boy
Think I'm gonna die
But now your hands are touching my waist
In the back of the car, you just couldn't wait
And now my hands are moving in ways
Like I need you right now, I just couldn't wait
And my, my mind's made so much noise for so long, and it's gone
'Cause when you kiss me it's quiet
Oh, it's quiet
Quiet
Oh, it's quiet
Did you get taller? Your hair is longer
Couple tattoos since I saw you
Looking at your hands, thinking of my plans for 'em, ooh
Ooh, but what if I panic? What if I'm damaged?
What if I'm just not who you imagined?
I just can't focus, and you're gorgeous
And I'm hopeless, goddamn it
It's you, boy
I'm cool like an icicle 'til I see you, boy
Think I'm gonna die
But now your hands (hands) are touching my waist
In the back of the car, you just couldn't wait
And now my hands are moving in ways
Like I need you right now, I just couldn't wait
And my, my mind's made so much noise for so long, and it's gone
'Cause when you kiss me it's quiet
Oh, it's quiet
Quiet
Oh, it's quiet
It's you, boy (ay, ay, ay)
It's you, boy (oh)
Oh, but now your hands are touching my waist
In the back of the car, you just couldn't wait
And now my hands are moving in ways
Like I need you right now, I just couldn't wait
And my, my mind's made so much noise for so long, and it's gone
'Cause when you kiss me it's quiet
Oh, it's quiet
It's quiet
Oh, it's quiet
