Lyrics
There's a girl I'm thinking of
Expressing thoughts about a specific girl.
A million reasons she's amazing but she's afraid she's not enough
Highlighting the girl's positive qualities, but she doubts her worth.
She never says what's on her mind
Not vocalizing her thoughts or emotions openly.
Always keeping to herself that she's been hurting all this time
Keeping her pain hidden despite suffering silently.
But you can say the things you feel
Encouraging open expression of emotions.
And you can let the tears come out
Emphasizing the importance of letting emotions out.
You can be the girl you wanna be
Encouraging the girl to be true to herself.
Don't second guess yourself
Discouraging self-doubt and hesitation.
You are perfect just the way you are no matter what you think
Affirming the girl's perfection as she is.
And if you asked me what I love about you
Prompting a reflection on what is loved about her.
Well there's a guy who won't say the words
Describing a guy hesitant to express love.
'Cause he's afraid to fall in love but he's been so in love with her
Despite fear, he's deeply in love with the girl.
He always says he'll be just fine
Claiming he'll be okay when she leaves, but inner fear exists.
When she leaves but he's so scared of letting go of her this time
Fearful of letting go this time.
So you should say the things you feel
Encouraging open expression of feelings, especially in love.
And you should let the words fall out
Advocating honesty and genuine communication.
Stop pretending like she isn't everything you think about
Advising not to deny the significance of the girl in thoughts.
She can feel the way you feel in all the songs you love to sing
She can sense emotions through shared favorite songs.
So if she asked you what you love about her
Prompting reflection on what is loved about her from the girl's perspective.
Would you just say things you don't mean
Warning against insincerity when expressing love.
Hoping she'll hear the words but read in between
Hoping she understands the unspoken emotions.
But she'll never know if you never say
Emphasizing the importance of verbalizing feelings.
So tell her you love her before she goes away
Expressing urgency in declaring love before it's too late.
'Cause we can say the things we feel
Encouraging open communication between partners.
And we can let our hearts be true
Advocating honesty and authenticity in relationships.
We don't need to make excuses for the things we wanna do
Rejecting the need for excuses in pursuing desires.
You can tell me what you're feeling and I'll tell you what I think
Promoting open discussion of feelings between partners.
And you can ask me what I love about you
Encouraging reciprocal sharing of reasons for love.
'Cause it's everything
Stating that everything about the person is loved.
Your smile when nobody's watching
Appreciating the girl's genuine smile in private moments.
Your eyes when you watch the stars and
Admiring the girl's eyes during stargazing.
Your laugh in all the wrong moments
Finding joy in the girl's laughter, even in unexpected situations.
When you act like nobody noticed
Noting the girl's behavior when she thinks no one is watching.
You can tell me what you're feeling
Encouraging reciprocal sharing of feelings.
And I'll tell you what I think
Reiterating a willingness to share thoughts and feelings.
So just ask me what I love about you
Inviting the girl to inquire about what is loved about her.
'Cause it's everything
Summarizing that everything about the person is loved.
