Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Go get me a doctor or I'm gonna' blow.
These flutters are endless, my stomach can fly.
I'm sick with infection, but I'll be alright.
I hope I don't come off as awkward or dumb.
I get it if you turn your tail and run.
I'm barely an average, you're out of my league.
I can't understand why'd you ever pick me.
You're an angel in disguise. So come on.
Let's get stupid while the night is young
and let's have some fun like we've only got one.
Don't tell your Dad, I can be your secret.
Oh my God, I'm hardly breathing.
I can't help it, I'm a babbling idiot.
Please kiss me quick, 'cause I need to feel it.
Just one more day, I don't want it to end.
If I leave you now will I see you again?
This room is so boring, this place is so new.
Let's have an adventure with just me and you.
Your everything's perfect, I'm in ecstasy.
My pants get much tighter when you're next to me.
You take me by the hand, I'm suddenly yours.
Don't mind me, I'll pick up my mouth off the floor.
Your scent is hypnotic, I'm lost in your eyes.
I can't wait to disappoint you with my size.
Don't pinch me, let me dream. Things aren't always what they seem.
This is too good to believe. So come on.
Let's get stupid while the night is young
and let's have some fun like we've only got one.
Don't tell your Dad, I can be your secret.
Oh my God, I'm hardly breathing.
I can't help it, I'm a babbling idiot.
Please kiss me quick, 'cause I need to feel it.
Just one more day, I don't want it to end.
If I leave you now will I see you again?
Again tomorrow. Years that follow. It's all unknown.
Don't leave me alone, my new friend. It's not the end.
But until then, let's go and-.
Let's get stupid while the night is young
and let's have some fun like we've only got one.
Don't tell your Dad, I can be your secret.
Oh my God, I'm hardly breathing.
I can't help it, I'm a babbling idiot.
Please kiss me quick, 'cause I need to feel it.
Just one more day, I don't want it to end.
