I know that love shouldn't be so hard and sometimes we're standing in the dark
But you light up everywhere I go
And I know a heart shouldn't beat so hard and sometimes we're swimming with the sharks

And I was meant for you.

No I'm fine
It's kinda complicated, that's for sure

But you can see it in my eyes, you can read it on my lips
I'm trying to get a hold on this
And I really mean it this time, and you know it's such a trip
Don't get me started, I'm trying to get a hold on this

Get get get in line and settle down...

Same story, different setting. Instead of a beach, there was a bar. Instead of a blanket, there was a car. Instead of rapture, there was confusion. But everything was exactly the same, even though it wasn't.
