I lean a little closer when I speak
Act casual like it's nothing to see
I play it smooth, pretend it's light
Like this isn't planned just right
Oh, I laugh it off, I change the subject
Like I don't feel the effect
Oh, I let it seem like chance at play
Like I'm not steering it this way
Oh, I test the space between us
Like I'm unaware, but you stay calm
And steady like you caught it all right there
I pretend you don't notice every signal I send
Like I'm just being friendly, like it doesn't depend
I act like you're unsure, like you're guessing my view
But I know you already know, yeah, I know you do
I know you do, I know you do, I know you do
Oh, I bring up stories I don't mean
Just to see what your face reveals
Oh, I talk like nothing's at stake
Like this isn't a game I make
You let me lead, you let me play like you're letting me have my way
But the calm you never lose shows me I'm not confused
I act like it's on plan, like I don't see your stance
But you're standing steady like you never miss a chance
I pretend you don't notice every signal I send
Like I'm just being friendly, like it doesn't depend
I act like you're unsure, like you're guessing my view
But I know you already know, yeah, I know you do
Baby, I like acting clever, like I hold control
But the truth shows in your patience, you already know the role
You don't rush, you don't react, you let me play it slow
And that's exactly how I know
You already know
I pretend you don't notice, but you catch every cue
Every pause, every smile, everything I do
I act like it's a secret, like I'm hiding my truth
But I know you already know, yeah, I know you do
So, so let me keep pretending, oh
Just a little more
We both know how this ends without saying it at all
