The way you look at me

The way you look at me
Makes me tingle from my feet
Back and forth back and forth
Coming back wanting more

The way you talk to me
Melts the iceberg on the sea
Jumping in jumping in
I can't breathe I can't swim

It's golden sunrise
What I see in your eyes
In my nights in my days
You're here anyway

You feel my heartbeat
Syncing with the humble bees
To the left to the right
You're the best by the light

Someday I will fly up high to reach the cloudless blue sky
No wings to help me fly
Someday you'll realise what I say is right
Someday you'll be mine
