lyrics

So we laced our hands together
and that alone just made my day
and she wants to ride The Zipper
So we step into the cage

and I can feel us getting higher
and you can see that it's not safe
but before they go and drop us
She calmly turns to kiss my face

I can't tell if the girl or the carnival rides
got me shaking inside
"Just play it cool"
I feel my heart coming upchuck
Is it good, is it bad luck
if I die in here with you?
Tell me what's a boy to do?

So we stumble through the exit
I hear that Brandon almost died
So we climb inside the ferris wheel
to cure my fear of frightening heights

And I can see us getting higher
and you can see your house from here
and a million times, your lips touched mine
and that alone just made my year

(Chorus)

I'd like to say "I love you"
but I don't want to pay
all these fees and these fines
that my heart has designed
Just to keep me away
From hurting you
I can see that you're scared of
me more than the air that
we suddenly seem to fall right through

(Chorus)

Oh, you see, well she cries when I touch her
but, oh god, I love her
So what else can I do?
I could stay at arm's length like I'm clever
but, oh no, I'd never
I know she loves me too
So tell me what's a boy to do?
