Crush
Poet22 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hey, just calling to see how you're doing
Call me back when you get a chance
Tell me what you think about me
Do you be having dreams about me
Laying in your bed
Replaying what I said
Cause you can barely sleep without me
Tell me what you feeling right now
Are you praying that your heart would slow down
Watching what I do thinking I love you
I dare you to say it right now
Cause I think I got a crush on you
And you aint even gotta like me too
But when I see you my heart skips a beat
It takes me back to elementary
Yeah I know baby that its been some time
But something in me, wanna make you mine
Time may pass but feelings never fade
And if we try we could ignite a flame
I know that your schedules never empty
But I was hoping we could make the time
Cause ain't nobody like you who just get me
And you don't even really have to try
What we do, can't deny it can't define it
But I got a crush on you
The rumors are true
I can't hide it though Im trying
Cause I got a crush on you
A crush on you
How did this even happen?
Its been a couple months cause I
Didn't really think you had the time
And maybe it was magic
It was new for me too
Never had this point of view
But I think I got a crush on you
No I never thought you'd like me too
I finally escaped the misery
Of overthinking cause you set me free
What we do, can't deny it can't define it
But I got a crush on you
The rumors are true
I can't hide it though Im trying




Cause I got a crush on you
A crush on you
