[Verse 1]
I'm staring at him
But I forget to pick my face up of off the floor
We're in a crowd, but it feels like we're alone
Oh my god he just looked at me
And I just wanna tell him something that he's never heard (oooh)
But my lips won't let me tell him, tell him
I would say this
[Hook 1]
But maybe, maybe in another life
I could be the girl who walks up to the guy
And tells him, tells him how she feels inside
But, not tonight, no not tonight
[Verse 2]
What if he walks towards me
While all the blood is rushing right to my brain
What am I gonna say, what am I gonna say
I may stop breathing and freeze
Cause that's the story of my life
Wouldn't it be crazy
If he felt, how I felt, overwhelmed and terrified
But he took my hand, and he took his chance
'Can I have this dance?'
If only we were in a Cinderella story
[Hook 1]
Maybe, maybe in another life
I could be the girl who walks up to the guy
And tells him, tells him how she feels inside
But not tonight, tonight
[Verse 3]
Who would I be
To make my feelings known
I need a little audacity but it's not in my bones
I'm standing here, terrified
Broken hearted, I could die (oooh ah)
I'm staring at him
But I forget to pick my face up off the floor
I feel like a fool and even though I do
I only wanna tell him that I love him more, more
[Hook 2]
Maybe, maybe in another life
I would be the girl who walks up to the guy
And says 'hey my name is Elle and I think you're kinda fly'
But not tonight, not tonight, tonight
[Hook 1]
Maybe, maybe in another life
I would be the girl who walks up to the guy
And tells him, tells him how she feels inside
But not tonight, not tonight
Maybe
Maybe, maybe
