There are some things that beg 
 To be said without subtlety 
 Gone are my normal charms 
 You disarm the poet in me 
    And a rapturous wave 
 Travels through me 
 Sending all my good sense south 
 I begin to behave 
 Like a star struck groupie 
 And the words escape my mouth   
 You’re the shhhh 
 I been over it 
 Never seen another like you in my life 
 You’re the shhhhh 
 I been over it 
 And I wouldn’t swear if I wasn’t right   
 The other adjectives 
 Seem illegitimate 
 In reference to yourself 
 Forgive my un-inventiveness 
 I’m just too impressed 
 To come up with something else   
 And a rapturous wave 
 Travels through me 
 Sending all my good sense south 
 I begin to behave 
 Like a star struck groupie 
 And the words escape my mouth   
 You’re the shhhh 
 I been over it 
 Never seen another like you in my life 
 You’re the shhhhh 
 I been over it 
 And I wouldn’t swear if I wasn’t right   
 Lost on me ar-ti-cu-la-tion 
 Tongue tied with pure a-dor-a-tion 
 And risk offense with this na-rra-tion 
 But it’s all because   
 You’re the shhhh 
 I been over it 
 Never seen another like you in my life 
 You’re the shhhhh 
 I been over it 
 And I wouldn’t swear if I wasn’t right   
 It’s a fit yeah (yeah) 
 Can I wear this pair out 
 (Can I wear this pair out) 
 Cancel my trip (my trip) 
 I’m gonna stay in town a little longer 
 (Stay in town longer) 
 A little longer (longer) 
 Than a rebound (bound-bound-bound-bound-bound-bound) 
 Before is not a word it’s just a sound   
 After you my past, 
 Faded into the background 
 (After you my past faded into the) 
 My heart don’t beat 
 It pounds 
 And I think, I think 
 My life begins right now (right now)   
 And I think, I think 
 My life begins right now (now) 
 And I think, I think 
 My life begins right now 
 And I think, I think 
 My life begins right now
