[Verse 1] I signed up late for the company show Thought I’d fake the steps and let it go Then you walked in with that steady smile Took the front row and changed my style You said, "Relax, just follow my lead" My heart said, "Careful, that’s all you need" Now every count feels a little too loud When you look at me in a room full of crowds [Pre-Chorus] I know the lines I know the rule You call me boss I try to be cool But when you say "one more time" I lose my place And I lose my mind [Chorus] Don’t look at me like that Don’t look at me like that I’m trying to act like I’m fine Don’t look at me like that Don’t look at me like that You’re crossing every line of mine [Verse 2] After the event, the hallway was bare Your bag on your shoulder, your hair in the air I said, "You did good" in a voice too thin You laughed so soft and pulled me in I know the gap, I know what I owe I know the weight when I’m the one who knows But your name stayed long after we said goodnight Like a pulse in the dark and a spark in my chest [Pre-Chorus] I know the lines I know the rule You call me boss I try to be cool But when you say "one more time" I lose my place And I lose my mind [Chorus] Don’t look at me like that Don’t look at me like that I’m trying to act like I’m fine Don’t look at me like that Don’t look at me like that You’re crossing every line of mine [Bridge] If I’m honest, I should step back Let the feeling pass, let the room go black I can’t be the reason you hesitate I can’t make a mistake and call it fate So if this is real, it’s got to wait Past the office door, past the handoff date Till there’s no rank, till there’s no chain Just two hearts free from the frame [Final Chorus] Don’t look at me like that Don’t look at me like that I’m trying to act like I’m fine Don’t look at me like that Don’t look at me like that I’ll keep my heart in line Don’t look at me like that Don’t look at me like that If it’s meant to be, it’ll wait Don’t look at me like that Don’t look at me like that I won’t make love out of a mistake
