We are just kids with the world at our fingertips
The cool crisp air suddenly comes to life
The pounding of my heart so loud I swear he can hear it
All I can do is wait, as moment after moment passes
The cool, crisp air suddenly comes to life
My hands are shaking
All I can do is wait, as moment after moment passes
His face lights up, Joy?
My hands are shaking
This can’t be anything more
His face lights up, Joy?
I have to deny it.
What could even come from this?
The pounding of my heart so loud I swear he can hear it
Could there be more?
We are just kids with the world at our fingertips
