[Instrumental Intro]

[Chorus]
Tongue-tied, I can't find
No words to describe everything that you are
Swept up the rest of
Your love, don't budge, build a bridge to my heart

[Verse]
Your eyes are like the sun on a day that's cold
Your love is like a blanket around my soul
Your words are like a song that the birds all sing to me (Oh)
Your eyes are like the sun in the morning mist
My fears disappear when I feel your kiss
Your words are like a song that the birds all sing
My life needs more of the light you bring (Yeah)
Always so nicе to meet you, didn't think we'd be friends
I thought this last maybе a week, we made it 'round the bend
You got to know the side of me I've never opened up
Your cat don't like me though, keeps hissing like your soda does
I'll write the poems, you'll correct all the grammar, yeah
Flow's automatic when you sit in my standard, girl
Grab on your wrist, let's go dance in the mist
Take you back to the street where you wave me goodbye from your window

[Chorus]
Tongue-tied (Tongue-tied), I can't find (Can't find)
No words to describe everything that you are
Swept up (Swept up) the rest of (Rest of)
Your love, don't budge (No, your love don't budge)
Tongue-tied (Tongue-tied), I can't find (I can't find)
No words to describe everything that you are
Swept up (Swept up) the rest of (Rest of)
Your love, don't budge, build a bridge to my heart
[Outro]
If only we could stay young
When all we saw was the beauty in one another
Wanting to spend every moment together
But when that last butterfly takes flight, all that is left this time
And time is unkind if you haven't learned patience
The more we would talk, the less we would listen
The more we would stare, the more we would see
And the softer we touch, the harder we fought
He withdrew into his room, and I decided to leave
