[Verse] This feeling trapped within me Is waiting to be set free Like a ball full of energy The momentum keeps on building There's only so much I can do To contain my feelings for you Each time I'm brought closer to you The deeper I fall for you [Pre-chorus] I'm hit with impostor syndrome Kept thinking if I'd abandon [Chorus] Can I get straight to your heart I just don't know where to start Didn't know love could be so hard Why is love such a tough nut How do I get straight to your heart And say I love you from my gut How do I get out of this rut And jump right straight to your heart [Verse] Thoughts keep running through my mind Monkey chatter's there all the time Doubting if I would ever land With you being more than friends Why do I keep pretending And act cool when I'm there standing Right next to you each morning Surreptitiously eyeing you [Pre-chorus] I can't get you off my mind But I'm timid and tongue-tied [Chorus] Can I get straight to your heart I just don't know where to start Didn't know love could be so hard Why is love such a tough nut How do I get straight to your heart And say I love you from my gut How do I get out of this rut And jump right straight to your heart [Instrumental interlude] [Bridge] Yes, I don't know where to start So I wrote this song for your heart Release it up, up and away Hoping you'll hear it one day [Chorus 2x] Can I get straight to your heart I just don't know where to start Didn't know love could be so hard Why is love such a tough nut How do I get straight to your heart And say I love you from my gut How do I get out of this rut And jump right straight to your heart
