Bright Idea
Orson Lyrics

Did somebody tell you what I couldn't tell you
Did someone else reveal my feelings towards you that I was too afraid to share?

I hope they did
I hope that someone else was able to tell you how I feel.

I hope they didn't
But at the same time, I hope that nobody revealed my feelings without my consent.

Well I oughta regret it
I should feel remorseful about not being able to tell you how I feel.

Or should I forget it
However, maybe it's better to forget about my feelings and move on.

Whatever this is
I'm unsure of what exactly my feelings towards you are.

It feels electric
But one thing's for sure, there's an undeniable attraction between us.

You shot me a sweet look
I noticed the way you were looking at me, it was a friendly and welcoming gesture.

Gave me your yearbook
You handed me your yearbook, a sign that you wanted me to write something inside.

Told me to sign it
You specifically asked me to sign your yearbook.

It was a signal
I took this as a signal that you were interested in me.

But I couldn't find the words
Despite your signal, I couldn't muster the courage to tell you how I felt.

I just couldn't find the nerve
I lacked the courage to express my feelings to you.

As usual
This lack of bravery is a common issue for me.

Here's my bright idea
As a result of my fear, I've come up with a plan.

I'll just disappear
I'll disappear from your life, rather than facing the fear of rejection or loss.

And now you're in Hollywood
You've achieved success and are now living in Hollywood.

Right in my neighborhood
Coincidentally, you're living in the same neighborhood as me.

Things are really looking up for you
You're doing well for yourself and your career.

An army of managers
You have a large number of managers to help guide your career.

And lots of pretty boys lining up
There are many attractive men interested in pursuing a relationship with you.

To read for you
These men are clamoring for the opportunity to audition for you.

Oh, I'm pretty sure that it was you
I believe I saw you the other day, but I'm not entirely certain.

That I bumped into just the other day
I had an encounter with someone who may have been you recently.

At the record store
This encounter happened at a music store.

But I still don't have a clue
I'm still uncertain if it was really you I saw.

I just couldn't talk to you
Even if it was you, I still couldn't bring myself to speak with you.

So I come to your event
I attend an event you're hosting or performing at.

In my well rehearsed mystique
I arrive with a deliberate, mysterious demeanor that I've practiced in advance.

I show up an hour late
I show up fashionably late to the event.

But I've been ready for a week
Despite my lateness, I've been mentally preparing for this moment for a while.

And you float into the hallway
As you arrive, you seem to float rather than walk into the hallway.

like some neon silohuette
Your image stands out brightly, like a neon sign in the dimly lit hallway.

I'm slowly losing oxygen
The sight of you takes my breath away, nearly rendering me speechless.

and my hands are soaking wet
My nerves are getting to me and causing me to sweat profusely.

all the cameras and reporters
The event is being covered by a large group of journalists and photographers.

piling up on one another
The reporters are all trying to get to you at once, creating a chaotic scene.

just to get a look at you
The reporters are eager to catch a glimpse of you and capture your image on camera.

they all want an interview
The journalists are hoping to get an exclusive interview with you.

Then I make my move
I try to make my way through the crowd towards you.

push them out of my way
I physically move and push through the reporters to try to reach you.

but I still just don't know what to say
Despite my efforts, I'm still at a loss for words when I finally stand before you.

Here's my bright idea
Once again, I turn to my plan.

Woah
Another filler word that is not meant to convey any particular meaning.
