Speechless
Dan Shay Lyrics

You say you'll be down in five
You give me a five-minute warning before you come downstairs.

The smell of your perfume
I can smell your perfume as it floats down the stairs.

Is floating down the stairs
Your perfume is drifting down the stairs.

You're fixing up your hair like you do
You are fixing your hair in your usual way.

I know that I'll be a mess
I know that I will be flustered and nervous around you.

The second that I see you
As soon as I lay eyes on you.

You won't be surprised
You won't be shocked or taken aback by my reaction.

It happens every time
My reaction is always the same.

It's nothing new
This is a familiar experience for me.

It's always on a night like tonight
This experience usually happens on a night like tonight.

I thank God you can read my mind
I am grateful that you can understand my thoughts without me saying them out loud.

'Cause when you look at me with those eyes
Because your gaze has a powerful effect on me.

I'm speechless
I am left without words by your beauty and presence.

Staring at you, standing there in that dress
I am captivated by you and the way you look in that dress.

What it's doing to me, ain't a secret
It's obvious to anyone watching that I am affected by you.

'Cause watching you is all that I can do
Looking at you is the only thing I can focus on.

You already know that you're my weakness
You are aware that you have a powerful effect on me.

After all this time I'm just as nervous
Even though we've been together for a while, I still get nervous around you.

Every time you walk into the room
Whenever you enter a room I am in.

It started when you said hello
My feelings for you began when you greeted me.

Just did something to me
I was instantly affected by your presence and the sound of your voice.

And I've been in a daze
I've been in a dreamlike state ever since we met.

Ever since the day that we meet
Since the day we first met.

You take the breath out of my lungs
You leave me breathless with your beauty and charm.

Can't even fight it
I can't resist my feelings for you.

And all of the words out of my mouth without even trying
I am left speechless and unable to speak when I am around you.

Yeah, baby, mmm
An expression of affection for you.

Girl it ain't a secret
It's no secret that I am captivated by you.

Oh, you know it, baby
You are aware of my feelings for you.

Oh oh, mmm
An expression of affection for you.
