(Verse 1) You walked in with your hoodie on Hair still messy from the break of dawn Trying hard to play it cool But you’re making me look like a fool You caught me staring, laughed at me Said, “What’s got you smiling so sweet?” I looked away, turned bright red ‘Cause I couldn’t hide the thoughts in my head (Pre-Chorus) You said it’s getting way too warm Sunlight wrapped around your arms Then you looked into my eyes and grinned… (Chorus) Take off your shirt Spin around the room Let the summer light Dance across you too It’s not about perfection Or trying to impress It’s just the way you smile That gets me such a mess Take off your shirt Laugh into the breeze Every little heartbeat Brings me to my knees You don’t even know What you’re worth Every time you say… “I’m gonna take off my shirt.” (Verse 2) We’re by the lake, skipping stones Making memories of our own You throw your sweater in the car And somehow steal my beating heart You splash the water, call my name I swear I’ll never be the same You tease me with that crooked grin I lose before I even begin (Pre-Chorus) You say, “Relax, it’s only me.” But you don’t know what you do to me… (Chorus) Take off your shirt Spin around the room Let the summer light Dance across you too It’s not about perfection Or trying to impress It’s just the way you smile That gets me such a mess Take off your shirt Laugh into the breeze Every little heartbeat Brings me to my knees You don’t even know What you’re worth Every time you say… “I’m gonna take off my shirt.” (Bridge) Maybe someday I’ll confess It’s never been about your chest It’s every laugh, every glance Every moment, every chance If you held my hand tonight I’d forget the stars and sky ‘Cause you’re the only view I need (Final Chorus) Take off your shirt The sunset’s turning gold I’ll remember this Even when we’re old ‘Cause love is in the little things The moments that we share Not what you’re wearing But that you’re standing there Take off your shirt And stay here with me Two boys chasing summer Wild and free You don’t have to change Who you are, not one bit I’m already in love… The shirt’s got nothing to do with it.
