I've got a lot on my mind today,
And I'm finding myself unable to say
"Hey, I wanna talk to you"
It's like trying to fly a kite
I'm holding on tight but I don't think I'm doing it right,
Despite having thought it through
"I'm giving up for the day. I'll try again tonight"
I call you on the phone to see if you're alone
This time you are, so I get in the car
I crash on the way, but I still wanna say,
"You made my day when you called me out of the blue
Can you remember what you said?
Maybe I'll remember when I get out of bed"
Now that we can be alone, I sing,
Cause I feel like I can tell you anything
You tend to bring that kind of feeling
Although I think you already know,
I tell you "I love you and you make me feel like home is not so far away
I got tired of waiting of waiting so I told you today"
I kiss you on the face and I feel out of place
You start to dance, and it puts me in a trance
And I start to feel things I know aren't real
All of this to steal a momentary glance
It's like trying to fly a kite
I'm holding on tight, but I don't think I'm doing it right,
Despite having thought it through
I'm giving up for the day. I'll try again tonight
Maybe I'll remember when I get out of bed
I got tired of waiting so I told you today
