Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

A million faces, a million names
A million boys bur there all the same
Until I set my eyes on you, yeahh
Like a moth into a flame
I just could not look away
There's nothing else for me to do

You give me butterflies
Tangled up inside
I wanna close my eyes and hang on to this feeling
Butterflies
So tongue tied
Here's what I'm trying to say
You give me butterflies

The way you look the way you laugh
The way you love and don't hold back
Your everything I've waited for yeahh
I have never felt so much
It's like a promise when we touch
I could not ask for something more
And I love the way your hand fits into mine

You give me butterflies
Tangled up inside

I wanna close my eyes and hold on to this feeling
Butterflies
So tongue tied
Here's what I'm trying to say
You give me butterflies

And every word is like a song
And I can't help but sing along
You give me butterflies

Butterflies
Tangled up inside
I wanna close my eyes and hold on to this feeling
Butterflies
So tongue tied
Here's what I'm trying to say
Baby I hope that you stay
I hope that you stay and keep giving me
Butterflies,





I wanna close my eyes and hold on to this feeling.
I wanna close my eyes and hold on to this feeling.
