about

One of OUR favorites from recent performances!

lyrics

I put my arm around you yesterday
Just cuz it was nice to see ya
Then there was something like electricity
Suddenly runnin through me yeah

We made eye contact
And my heart stood still
And I felt unmasked
Like you saw my secret thrill

I didn't say nothin But I sorta panicked
Spent the rest of that day kinda manic
That moment didn't play the way I ran it
In my head seconds before

You ruined it when you hugged me back
What, were you tryin to give me a heart attack
I used to have complete control over my heart and soul
But you ruined it when you hugged me back

Now I lie awake at night
I look out at the traffic light
Green to yellow to red to green
Again and again and again

But my foot's hard on the brake
I don't wanna make some stupid mistake
But I feel like I already made it yesterday

And now I step through this door
Can't wait can't bear to see ya
And this electricity
Ain't lettin go of me yeah

It ain't lettin go of me yeah
It ain't lettin go of me yeah
It ain't lettin go of me yeah
It ain't lettin go of me

Cuz you ruined it when you hugged me back
What were you tryin to give me a heart attack
I used to have complete control over my heart and soul
But you ruined it when you hugged me back
