Lyrics
From the moment I first saw you
I found myself drawn to you
How do you do it to me
Expose the introvert in me
I tried to ignore you
But always find myself before you
How do you do it to me
Your gaze it cuts right through me
So I stand before you blushing
My mind in a haze of nothing
Shyness incapacitates me
The awe emasculates me
I’m afflicted in your presence
Cast back to adolescence
Confidence deserts me
Leaving only my insecurities
So I stand before you blushing
My mind in a haze of nothing
The awe incapacitates me
The shyness emasculates me
So I just stand here muted
I feel so fucking stupid
And once again I’m blushing freak
I deplete in your presence
I’m incapable of forming a sentence
The silence betrays me
Although words could never save me
I don’t get it this is crazy
How can you always faze me
You’re magnetic but repelling
And my cheeks they are reddening
So I stand before you blushing
My mind in a haze of nothing
The awe incapacitates me
The shyness emasculates me
So I just stand here muted
I feel so fucking stupid
And once again I’m blushing freak
