Now

I've never met a man like this before
I'm unfamiliar with this feeling but I wanna feel it more
Oh, what do I do, and what do I not
I'm in new territory and I seem to have been caught
By questions and suggestions that take the form of thoughts
I wonder where it's coming from

It's the way he looks at me
Yes, it's the glimmer in his eyes
He's familiar with my face
But there's a shimmer of surprise every time
That look could make gold coins from a dime
He smiles when he sees me
I suppose he smiles a lot
But sometimes a smile says a feeling
And a feeling's less than what this smile's got
So I'll think on that and jot

Oh, he's friendly, he's nice, he's funny, he's kind
We share so many interests and he's just the perfect guy
He's got charm, charm he's got, plus he's just really hot
When will I get the chance to get the guy I see
I can't sit around and wait for love to just happen to me

It's the way to say your truth
A way I don't know how to find
I mean, for once I know he likes dudes
No fear there, what a change, this feels nice
It's not impossible for me to be the one he likes
Yikes
It's the nerves, it's the fear
It's all the other people here
I can't just drop a hint
No, I know that I have to be clear
But the moment's coming near

Oh, he's charismatic, he's fun, I've never met anyone
Who makes me feel this feeling in a way I could call love
I don't have to hold back who I am, so at that
When will I get the chance to get the guy I see
It's once in a blue moon someone makes you so free

I'm trapped by the anxieties and fear of rejection
What if he's already taken, what if I fall into depression
But if I don't at least try, I'll look back and just cry
Cuz if there's even a slightest chance, that chance has to be mine

It's the way I don't worry about being myself
I don't feel out of place, but I feel like nobody else
I guess that helps
And maybe he'll say no, but if so, anyhow
At least I'll have had the courage to actually find out
Is there a better time than now
Is there a better time than now
