lyrics

Hello, I'm quite stunned
but my friend's call me Stephanie.
I'm really tripping on my own words and it's not reflecting the best of me.
Mmhmm
You say the room is pretty crowded
and it's not really your scene
I can tell by way you can't settle in that steel plated seat.
Mmhmm

Your voice is like the feeling of holding hands for the first time, and for a moment, everything's right.
Like that.
The way it melts into my ears is like the way I feel when I'm enveloped in strong arms or a warm fleece blanket.
Like that.
Could you sing me to sleep?

It's never been hard to feign confidence
until you stood right in front of me
And like being at the top of a roller coaster, I'll never feel ready
to talk to you.
When I mustered up the courage,
I took a deep breathe in
and as I exhaled, I completely forgot that I existed.
I stood there for a moment, all red in the face
my heart almost ceased to beat
when you said my name

You make me wanna write 10 albums
all about the way you make me feel like I'm the only one in the room
When all eyes are on you.
