Nervous

I get nervous when I'm around you
That's why my eyes scan the room 
Even if its just you and me there
Cause I can't just bring myself to make a move 

I get all chilled from my hands
And my legs sit glued to that chair
While all I do is avoid your stare
Cause I'm afraid to respond it 

I get jitters and my heart melts
In anticipation of something I'm having doubts
It's like I didn't know what to expect
Like it's all happened too fast for me 

My hands are sweaty I tell myself 
So I keep them in my pants
That only makes it worse
Cause now eyes shift to the bulge
