Nervous Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I was fine on my own, every night I slept alone
The distance kept me safe
It's easier to fake the feel than dance around with somethin' real
Promises might break
[Pre-Chorus]
Then you came along and said that I was different
You were missin' somethin' and it felt like we should see
Normally, I'd file away your face as a distraction
But I like the way that you're distracting me
[Chorus]
Get in the plane, runnin' your fingers through my hair
Don't wanna behave, how do you act when no one's there?
Feelin' a type, feelin' a way, it's different and it's workin'
Oh, you make me nervous, oh, you make me nervous (Hey)
Oh, you make me nervous (Hey)
[Verse 2]
I went home before my friends so I could hear your voice again
But it feels strange to care
I hesitate to say out loud that when I'm drunk and in a crowd
I pretend you're there (You're there)
[Pre-Chorus]
We watched the helicopters from the top of your apartment
And all I could think was, "I don't want to leave"
Normally, I'd file away your face as a distraction
But I like the way that you're distracting me
[Chorus]
Get in the plane, runnin' your fingers through my hair
Don't wanna behave, how do you act when no one's there?
Feelin' a type, feelin' a way, it's different and it's workin'
Oh, you make me nervous, oh, you make me nervous (Hey)
Oh, you make me nervous (Hey)
[Bridge]
I'm writing this from your bed
While you're in the other room
I like what you do to me, and I wanna tell you soon
Maybe you'll shy away, maybe we'll fall apart
It's hard bein' honest, but I'm being honest
[Chorus]
Get in the plane, runnin' your fingers through my hair
Don't wanna behave, how do you act when no one's there?
Feelin' a type, feelin' a way, it's different and it's workin'
Oh, you make me nervous, oh, you make me nervous
Oh, you make me nervous
