# TOP OF MY HEART [Intro: Bright electric guitar riff, punchy drums] Hey, partner! Got your notes? Good. You're gonna need them. One semester. One project. Try to keep up. [Verse 1] You walk in late with a perfect excuse I say it's weak, you say I've got no proof Professor pairs us, what a beautiful crime Now your name's next to mine You steal my point, I steal your pen You say I'm wrong, I ask, "Since when?" That little smirk should be against the rules You're smart, you're sharp, you're seriously cruel [Pre-Chorus] We got deadlines, we got pride Two stubborn hearts on the same damn side I know the answer to every test So why's my heartbeat failing this? [Chorus] HEY! YOU, YEAH, YOU! You're my favorite complication One look and I'm losing my concentration Top of the class, but I'm falling behind 'Cause you keep running circles around my mind HEY! YOU, DON'T SMILE! I've been trying to win you for a while Beat me at the board, steal my heart instead You're the only question stuck inside my head Oh-oh-oh, I can't deny You're at the top of my heart tonight! Oh-oh-oh, what's my excuse? I hate to lose, but I'd lose to you! [Verse 2] Two cups of coffee, quarter past ten We solved the whole world, then argued again You laugh at my theory, I challenge your view How'd my favorite debate become talking to you? Your favorite snack, I remember the brand I slide it your way like I planned it all You raise one brow, I look at my notes Why's a simple "thanks" got me clearing my throat? [Pre-Chorus] I play it cool, I calculate Every possible move I could make But you lean in and the numbers blur I'm a genius, not immune to her [Chorus] HEY! YOU, YEAH, YOU! You're my favorite complication One look and I'm losing my concentration Top of the class, but I'm falling behind 'Cause you keep running circles around my mind HEY! YOU, DON'T SMILE! I've been trying to win you for a while Beat me at the board, steal my heart instead You're the only question stuck inside my head Oh-oh-oh, I can't deny You're at the top of my heart tonight! Oh-oh-oh, what's my excuse? I hate to lose, but I'd lose to you! [Bridge: Half-time drums, clean guitar, intimate vocals] Maybe I like the way you disagree Never let me win just to humor me Maybe I save all the things I could say For our walk home at the end of the day I know the facts, I can prove my case But I forget every word when I see your face So here's one truth I can't refute: Every road I take keeps leading to you [Build-up: Drums return, guitars rising] Don't quote me on this! Actually, wait, write it down! I might be changing my position! Three, two, one! [Final Chorus: Full band, layered vocals] HEY! YOU, YEAH, YOU! You're my favorite complication My brilliant, beautiful distraction Top of the class, but I'm falling behind And I don't even mind if you're stealing my time HEY! YOU, COME HERE! I've got something I can't say in your ear Maybe winning isn't all that it's cracked up to be If the only victory means you're next to me Oh-oh-oh, I can't deny You're at the top of my heart tonight! Oh-oh-oh, the truth is due: My favorite rival is you, you, you! [Outro: Guitar riff, playful spoken vocals] For the record, my research is still better. ...Probably. And if you tell anyone I wrote a poem about you, I'll deny it. Unless you liked it. Then I'll consider a second draft. Hey, partner? Same time tomorrow? Don't make me miss you. It's terribly inconvenient.
