Why the enigmas, puzzles and games?
Running in circles and pointing blames.
Why do you throw hints then run and hide.
Why don't you tell me what you really feel inside?

You say things like "you've got pretty eyes."
That your beautiful smile is the real prize
You say things you probably don't really mean
My stomach feels butterflies, fluttering at the scene

You can't say things like that then turn and walk away
Own up to it, instead of saying it's a game you play
Instead of having my feelings all over the place
Tell me what you really feel, right to my face

Cuz nothing's worse than mixed signals from a player
Like the switch is stuck between on and off: an unanswered prayer
So please, don't mess with the way I feel
And just straight up tell me if it's real
