Not Tonight

I'm staring at him

But I forget to pick my face up off the floor, ooooh

We're in a crowd, but it feels like we're alone, ooooh

Oh my God he just looked at me

And I just wanna tell him something that he's never heard, oooh

But my lips won't let me tell him, tell him

I would say this

But maybe, maybe in another life

I could be the girl who walks up to the guy

And tells him, tells him how she feels inside

But, not tonight, no not tonight

What if he walks towards me

While all the blood is rushing right to my brain

What am I gonna say, what am I gonna say

I may stop breathing and freeze cuz

That's the story of my life

Wouldn't it be crazy

If he felt, how I felt, overwhelmed and terrified

But he took my hand

And he took his chance, can I have this dance

If only we were in a Cinderella story

Maybe, maybe in another life

I could be the girl who walks up to the guy

And tells him, tells him how she feels inside

But, not tonight, no not tonight

Who would I be

To make my feelings known

I need a little audacity but it's not in my bones

I'm standing here, terrified

Broken hearted, I could die, ooooohh

I'm staring at him

But I forget to pick my face up off the floor

I look like a fool

And even though I do

I only wanna tell him that I love him more, more

Maybe, maybe in another life

I would be the girl who walks up to the guy

And say "Hey my name is Elle, and I think you're kinda fly"

But not tonight, not tonight, tonight

Maybe, maybe in another life

I would be the girl who walks up to the guy

And tells him, tells him how she feels inside

But not tonight, not tonight

Maybe ohh maybe ....
