So there goes another day
that felt completely wasted
Because the words escaped me again
I know what I want to say
But I don't know how to say it
And I'm so tired of pretending

Chorus:
I can't speak - my lips are paralyzed
I can't believe I am so hypnotized by her
This dream will go unrealized I'm sure
Unless I get the nerve

So is it better just to wait
than risk being rejected?
Because I'm not content as friends
I want to tell her that she's great
And maybe she suspects it
I'm a mess - I hate this dilemma

Chorus:
I can't speak - my lips are paralyzed
I can't believe I am so hypnotized by her
This dream will go unrealized I'm sure
Unless I get the nerve

It's gone
It's gone
my confidence has withered away
But my luck will certainly change today
Right?

Chorus:
I can't speak - my lips are paralyzed
I can't believe I am so hypnotized by her
This dream will go unrealized I'm sure
Unless I get the nerve

I can't speak
I can't believe I am so hypnotized by her
And this dream will go unrealized I'm sure
Unless I get the nerve
Unless I get the nerve
