Can You Tell
Ra Ra Riot Lyrics
Have I been too discreet
How long am I supposed to wait
I think about you nightly
Oh can you tell I'm losing sleep
What am I supposed to do
It's hard to stay cool
When you smile at me
And I get nervous every time you speak
My bed's too big for just me
When you turn your eyes
I promise I won't care
Standing by your sister fair
Oh baby baby baby please
My heart sinks to my feet
What am I supposed to do
I think about you nightly
My bed's too big for just me
When you turn your eyes
I promise I won't care
Standing by your sister fair
Standing by your sister fair
Standing by your sister fair
When I look into your eyes
I tend to lose my thoughts
Don't forget your stare
Oh what was that you said
Would you let me know
'Cause I can't read your mind
Oh can you tell
I can't even explain
Oh baby I can't even explain
What am I supposed to do
It's hard to stay cool
When you smile at me
And I get nervous every time you speak
Oh, standing by your sister fair

Have I been too discreet
How long am I supposed to wait
I think about you nightly
Oh can you tell I'm losing sleep
What am I supposed to do
It's hard to stay cool
When you smile at me
And I get nervous every time you speak
Has it really been seven years? Wow, where did the time go?

This song is rather dangerous.... Every time I play it, it gets stuck in my head for at least a week. Not that I really mind. :)

Maribel Mizu
Really awesome!!! This band so great! I tend to lose my thoughts...
Winifred
Great, to the point, and emotional lyrics. This song is great. I can't believe I haven't heard about them sooner. They are like a clash of Morrissey and Vampire Weekend.
Ashley Gil
Listening to this song at night gives me tranquility and eases my feelings from pain and it all goes away, why feel pain when you could just walk away and say" I' am the 💣, I don't need this 💯💯😭 and move on, for every person it is a different meaning
A. Monfort
I could listen to this song forever!!
The Night We Met.
I guess I'm late. But still happy I found this gem.
