Speechless

[Chorus: Atwood & Headhaunter]
I can't seem to say a word, but I hope that you see the message in my eyes
And I know this sounds absurd, but girl, I still feel our connection in the silence

I'm mumbling around you
You still hang around me
I love that I found you
But I just cannot speak
In the presence of a goddess
Girl, I think you keep me quiet
And I like it

[Verse 1: Headhaunter]
Oh man, I think it's love at first sight
I hope I dream the same scenario that runs through her mind
I've got the wherewithal to play it out, take her out to outer space
I've planned the date down to a science, while her eyes just—how you say? Uh—
Never mind, I'm trying to say she's something else
She manipulates my glacial heart that her tongue could melt
I'm hunkered down in bunkers 'round a lovely battlefield
My safety's on, but all the butterflies still flutter out the gun barrels

I think a cat got my—u-um—what's it called—
We had locked eyes once and you could cut the tension with, uh, something sharp
Tons of sparks and other smart metaphors formed between us
In uncharted territory, need to procure some visas
Like those triangle things in Giza, so visually stunning
I'm a sucker for that—uh, colored hair—her lips are so lovely
Like the—damn, what's the word—her freckles like stars that speckle the sky or something
I don't know, I think my mind is buffering
I'm just speechless

[Chorus: Atwood & Headhaunter]
I can't seem to say a word, but I hope that you see the message in my eyes
And I know this sounds absurd, but girl, I still feel our connection in the silence

I'm mumbling around you
You still hang around me
I love that I found you
But I just cannot speak
In the presence of a goddess
Girl, I think you keep me quiet
And I like it

[Verse 2: Atwood]
You've got the… touch of a million angels
A pill I take to levitate to go higher than rainbows
A… A… No, I've got it on the tip of my tongue, hold on—
Um… Oh! And you're an angel!
Okay, hang on
I know that wasn't very charming, but
Your alabaster keys strike the strings of my heartbeat
And make me stop and think—well... not think—I mean, partly
But I just cannot seem to find something that hits the mark

How'd this even start?
Maybe I should buy a teleprompter
Type out all my sentences ahead of time
Finesse these awkward situations
But maybe that wouldn't be genuine
And I'd begin to slip into a state of charted destinations
A place so far away from yesterday's cathartic stasis
Guess it's hard to say that when my tongue's tied I still feel amazing
You make me feel amazing
You make me feel amazing
You make me… uh… I forgot…

[Chorus: Atwood & Headhaunter]
I can't seem to say a word, but I hope that you see the message in my eyes
And I know this sounds absurd, but girl, I still feel our connection in the silence

I'm mumbling around you
You still hang around me
I love that I found you
But I just cannot speak
In the presence of a goddess
Girl, I think you keep me quiet
And I like it
