Not Tonight Songtext

von Elle Varner

I'm staring at him but I forget
To pick my face up off the floor, ooh
We're in a crowd but it feels like we're alone, ooh
Oh, my god, he just looked at me

And I just wanna tell him something
That he's never heard, ooh
But my lips won't let me tell him, tell him
I would say this

But maybe, maybe in another life
I could be the girl who walks up to the guy
And tells him, tells him how she feels inside
But not tonight, no, not tonight

What if he walks towards me
While all the blood is rushing right to my brain?
What am I gonna say? What am I gonna say?
I may stop breathing and freeze

'Cause that's the story of my life, wouldn't it be crazy
If he felt how I felt, overwhelmed and terrified
But he took my hand and he took his chance
Can I have this dance? If only we were in a Cinderella story

Maybe, maybe in another life
I could be the girl who walks up to the guy
And tells him, tells him how she feels inside
But not tonight, no, not tonight

Who would I be to make my feelings known
I need a little audacity but it's not in my bones
I'm standing here, paralyzed
Brokenhearted, I could die, ooh

I'm staring at him but I forget
To pick my face up off the floor
I look like a fool and even though I do
I only wanna tell him that I love him more, more
