Make Believe
Last November Lyrics

So you caught me off guard
I was not expecting you to make a move on me.

You knocked my feet right out from under me
You surprised me so much that I lost my balance physically and emotionally.

Please give me just one chance
I am asking for an opportunity to show you how I feel.

I promise you wont regret anything tomorrow
I am confident that a chance with me will not lead to any negative consequences.

I see you from the stage
I notice you in the audience when I perform.

You're smiling
You look happy and joyful.

The lights in my eyes
The bright stage lights make it difficult for me to see clearly.

They're blinding
The intensity of the stage lights is overwhelming me.

All the while
At the same time as I'm performing,

Searching for & finding your face
I am specifically trying to locate you within the audience and I eventually succeed.

Is it all make believe?
I am questioning whether my feelings for you are genuine or not.

I can't tell because you're always in my dreams
I cannot distinguish between what is real and what I imagine because thoughts of you constantly enter my mind.

Do do do do, do do do do
N/A

I know it sounds cliche
I realize that what I'm about to say may sound unoriginal or overused.

But I'll say it anyway
Despite its commonness, I will still express the sentiment.

You make my heart beat faster
You excite me and make me feel more alive.

And I could fall asleep
You bring me a sense of comfort and security.

To the sound of your laughter
The way you express joy through your laughter is soothing to me.

Well sometimes late at night
In moments of solitude, often at the end of the day,

I wonder if you're thinking about me
I am curious if you also have feelings for me or if I am alone in my feelings.

Well I guess that's all just wishful thinking
I recognize that this may be an unrealistic desire and acknowledge that it may not come true.

You're always in my dreams
Thoughts of you constantly infiltrate my subconscious and I cannot escape them.

I'm having trouble finding
I am struggling to identify

The only difference between
The one thing that sets apart

You & my reality
You and the world as I know it.

Oh, you & my dreams
You and my fantasies about what could be.

And if you want me to
If you express that you reciprocate my feelings,

Then I will follow through
I will take action and pursue a romantic relationship.

Can I still love & lose
I am grappling with whether it is worth the risk to pursue a romantic relationship with you and potentially end up heartbroken.

Or should I never fall for you?
I am questioning whether I should safeguard my heart and avoid the possibility of getting hurt altogether.

When you're around I st-st-stutter and stumble
In your presence, I become nervous and struggle to articulate myself smoothly.

In this stupid humble
In this unfortunate state of nervousness.

Can you hold me tonight?
I want to be physically close to you and feel your touch in a romantic way.

If you cut me I will bleed
I am a human and have emotions that can be hurt or damaged.

& if you hold me under
If you were to hold me down or oppress me,

I cannot breathe
I would feel suffocated and trapped.

When I look into a crowd
In moments when I am scanning a large group of people,

I see you standing
I inevitably locate you because you stand out to me.

And if you want to hang out
If you express that you want to spend time with me,

I wont ask you to stay for too long
I do not want to push my luck and overstay my welcome.

Bc you're always in my dreams
I constantly fantasize about being with you, so I do not want to ruin the illusion by spending too much time together in reality.

I let my guard down once again
I allowed myself to be vulnerable and open with you once more.

And I knew it, I knew it
I was aware of the risk I was taking and the likely outcome.

Why can't we be more than friends?
I wish that our relationship could be more romantically involved than it currently is.

Cause I blew it, I blew it
I made a mistake or did something wrong that prevented us from moving forward as a romantic pair.
