Put your hand in mine
I hope that you can't feel
The heat, the sweat, the nerves
I can't explain
For once I'm lost for words
You are just what I need
You make it easy to breathe
For too long I've been out of tune
But you put me back in key
We are going pretty fast
But it seems to me you're okay with that
I know we're rough around edges
But I don't care about image
Isn't this what youth is for
Taking it all, but still wanting more
Late nights, warm hands, blunts of grass
For now this feeling just won't pass
I'm a cynic, but I can say
I never thought I'd feel this way
My heart starts to palpitate
Worries start to melt away
Cigarettes and cheap beer
Help erase neurotic fear
I can't help but see the good you hide away
Despite what everybody thinks, I know you're here to stay
