Lyrics
They stare, when you walk in the room, like they're looking at Heaven
People in the room stare at you with admiration, as if they are witnessing something heavenly.
Oh you know that those boys will do more than just look if you let 'em
There is an acknowledgment that some boys might desire more than just looking at you if given the chance.
And I don't wanna be like them, with you
The singer doesn't want to emulate the behavior of those boys when they are with you.
But you still look at me like him
Despite not wanting to be like those boys, the singer notices that you still look at them as if they are similar.
And you taste like danger but I feel so safe in your arms
Your presence is thrilling and feels risky, but being in your arms provides a sense of safety.
And I like the way that you talk, so
The singer appreciates the way you communicate and express yourself verbally.
Spelling my name with your tongue, so
There's a sensual aspect to your communication, like spelling the singer's name with your tongue.
You don't have to say it
Actions speak louder than words; the singer doesn't need explicit declarations.
We're friends at the party, I'll give you my body at home

Well I stare when you walk in the room, like I'm scared to forget you

If you're thinking that I'm gonna act like those boys, I would never

But I don't wanna be like them, with you

But you still look at me like him
