On the count of three
I couldn't say it back,
that time you said: 'I like you'.
Not because i don't,
but because i do.
I listened to your sweet words,
they made me happy but also afraid.
How on earth can this be real,
When we just had our third date?!
I want to dive into the unknown,
jump off that cliff.
Take that risk together,
give you all that i can give.
But for me to jump,
I need to see where I'll land.
But it's too deep and dark,
So will you jump too and hold my hand?
We can use a parachute,
So we fall slow and steady.
Let's keep each other safe,
and jump on three, ready?
One: come a little closer
Two: Look at me how you often do
Three: It's time for me to say
I really like you too.
