[English]

I'm familiar with unrequited

I know you got a heart that's undecided just like mine

It takes its sweet time

I been shy to dive into the deep end

'Cause I don't really wanna lose a good friend, but I might

Find something divine

It's electric every time we touch

I've been living for this head rush

But sometimes it's too much

If we never try

How will we know

Baby, how far this thing could go

Give me a sign

If I'm on your mind

I don't want to fall in love alone

I wish that I could tell what you were thinking

I hate that I slip up when I've been drinking, but oh well

I can't help myself

I'm getting really tired of this back and forth

Why don't we just give in to this driving force? I mean

There's something between us

It's electric every time we touch

I've been living for this head rush

But sometimes it's too much

If we never try

How will we know

Baby, how far this thing could go

Give me a sign

If I'm on your mind

I don't wanna fall in love

And if we never try

How will we know

Baby, how far this thing could go

Give me a sign

If I'm on your mind

I don't want to fall in love alone

Fall

I don't wanna fall

I don't wanna fall in love alone

Fall

I don't wanna fall

I don't wanna fall in love alone

Fall
