about

he might be gay or something

lyrics

Looking at you reminds me of how it feels
To be falling in love again
Not to say that I’m in love or anything
You’re just my kind of man

Place my body in your vicinity
Play the game of touching hands
Love lighting, I’ll act accordingly
Hair tie rubber band

I just wanna be your partner
I just wanna be your friend
What if I
Wanna be
Your lover
I’ll be the Federica to your Jonathan

Doze in my breakfast nook
I can be your bedtime book
Speculation on our sexuality
But we don’t have to look

Is that a turtle or is it a tortoise shell
What really matters is who’s inside
And if there’s room for one more give me a call
The two of us can hide

I just wanna be your partner
I just wanna be your friend
What if I
Wanna be
Your lover
I’d even try my best to be your boyfriend

Been around for one whole eternity
And I’ve never seen one quite like you
Atomic clocks have run into overtime
But I know we’ll find something to do
