[Verse 1] I kept it in my coat Beside a folded note At the corner store I saw you laughing more Your name hit my tongue Like a song half-sung I stood there still With a pocket full of will [Pre-Chorus] I was trying to act cool Like I always do But my chest got loud When I looked at you [Chorus] I got to tell you now I got to tell you now You got me open, baby Right here, right now (right here, right now) I got to tell you now I got to tell you now I been sweet on you And I can't slow down (can't slow down) [Verse 2] Your apron had a stain From the cherry rain On your hands, you said "It ain't nothing," and you laughed instead I watched that silver spoon Spin in the afternoon And my whole brave face Fell right out of place [Pre-Chorus] So I took one breath Then another one If I don't say this It won't get done [Chorus] I got to tell you now I got to tell you now You got me open, baby Right here, right now (right here, right now) I got to tell you now I got to tell you now I been sweet on you And I can't slow down (can't slow down) [Bridge] If you say no, I'll still grin 'Cause I finally let you in No more hiding in my shoes No more turning red and blue I don't need no grand parade Just your smile and the time I made If my hands shake, let 'em shake This is the best mistake I make [Chorus] I got to tell you now I got to tell you now You got me open, baby Right here, right now (right here, right now) I got to tell you now I got to tell you now I been sweet on you And I can't slow down (can't slow down) [Outro] If you heard me clear Meet me over here I said what I said And my heart feels fed (my heart feels fed)
