Nowhere Near Water Lyrics

I have the opportunity
To call you pretty
But I can't
These words don't come out right
As "I don't know, I don't know".

Staring in the mirror
Saying all these words the same
I could pass you by 100 times
But I'll forget your name


Looking at my bedroom ceiling
Going over thoughts & feelings
Lumps in my throat wont get me through
All these thoughts I have for you
It doesn't help that I'm this shy
Can't focus or look in your eyes
Nervous tics leave here instead
Of boyhood thoughts in my head


I have the opportunity
To call you pretty
But I can't
These words don't come out right
As "I don't know, I don't know"

Staring in the mirror
Saying all these words the same
I could pass you by 100 times
But I'll forget your name
