lyrics

Caught me staring at the dress you're wearing
and I unhooked jewellery that you caught your hair in
Can't tell what you're thinking so I'll get a drink in
and ask can we both find a boat we can sink in
You've got me high, I wonder why (sarcastically)
you know that I have never had the nerve to come and say

That I've been thinking maybe we should see where this is gonna go
We've been spending all our time gettin' dressed to the nines for this fashion show

Caught my eye I'm on a contact high
I'm gonna find the right way to pull you aside
I'll stumble on my words, ones that I know you’ve heard
laughing as I trip over lines I tried to learn
And you smile through, the way you do
so deep I fell in love with you
and further as I watch you while I say

That I've been thinking maybe we should see where this is gonna go //
We've been spending all our time gettin' dressed to the nines for this fashion show
There are no good reasons why I waste time I find I have to let you know
That together we look fine, all dressed up to the nines for this fashion show

At first you sigh and roll your eyes
Annoyed that I took up your time
But maybe you're just scared and shy
Afraid of how you feel and why
But pound for pound, you turn around
you tremble on the waving ground
and I can tell, without a sound
that you agree and you have found that

Maybe we should see where this is gonna go
We've been spending all our time gettin' dressed to the nines for this fashion show
Take my hand we’ll leave this town, sharp in suit and glitter gown, then tell me everything you know
Cause together we look fine, all dressed up to the nines for this fashion show
