lyrics

daydreaming about us | our future | getting carried away | a ride in my brain | our first date | our first kiss | first christmas | first holidays | our first place | i turned my head and you were staring at me | was i dreaming out loud or were you right here with me? || i look at you and i hope that i look like you look when you look at someone when you like them | i like you and i'm looking for a sign that if i say hi you won't avert your eyes || love is blind and dreamer here is blind | you look my way but i was busy in my daydream | love is blind || i drink so much coffee to see you in your café | i go out of my way | love is a fine art | it all starts with a pencil outline | saying hi works just fine | i turned my head and you pretended to work | i pretended too, i was looking at the woodwork || i look at you and i hope that i look like you look when you look at someone when you like them | i like you and i'm looking for a sign if i ask you on a date, it's appropriate || love is blind | cassanova here is blind | you looked my way but i was busy in my daydream | love is blind || talking and testing | investing in how we express the things we want to express | ravages of time require you love the creature inside for when we're saggy and tired | i turned my head and you were smiling my way | is this a daydream or my lucky day? || i look at you and i hope that i look like you look when you look at someone when you like them | i like you and i'm looking for a sign that if i leaned in for a kiss i wouldn't miss || love is blind | mark antony was blind | you look my way but i was busy in my daydream |
