I was fine on my own
Every night I slept alone
The distance kept me safe
It's easier to fake the feel
Than dance around with something real
Promises might break
Then you came along
And said that I was different
You were missing something
And it felt like we should see
Normally, I'd fall away
Your face is a distraction
But I like the way
That you're distracting me

Get in the play
Running your fingers through my hair
Don't wanna behave
How do you act when no one's there?
Feeling inside, feeling a way
It's different and it's working
Oh, you make me nervous
oh, you make me nervous (hey)
Oh, you make me nervous (hey)

I went home before my friends
So I could hear your voice again
But it feels strange to care
I hesitate to say out loud
That when I'm drunk and in a crowd
I pretend you're there
(you're there)
We watch the helicopters
From the top of your apartment
And all I could think is
"I don't want to leave"
Normally, I'd fall away
Your face is a distraction
But I like the way
That you're distracting me

Get in the play
Running your fingers through my hair
Don't wanna behave
How do you act when no one's there?
Feeling inside, feeling a way
It's different and it's working
Oh, you make me nervous
oh, you make me nervous (hey)
Oh, you make me nervous (hey)

I'm writing this from your bed
While you're in the other room
I like what you do to me
And I wanna tell you soon
Maybe you'll shy away
Maybe you'll fall apart
It's hard being honest
But I'm being honest

Get in the play
Running your fingers through my hair
Don't wanna behave
How do you act when no one's there?
Feeling inside, feeling a way
It's different and it's working
Oh, you make me nervous
Oh, you make me nervous
Oh, you make me nervous
