It's gotta be me
There's no way
Someone else could feel this way
I feel about you
And we're free
To do what we want
And touch the sky together
Before you came around
I was driving in the depths of despair
And then when you finally came
It's funny you would run away
But when you look in my eyes
I'm a rabbit in the headlights
And when you're touchin' my skin
I'm a river in the moonlight
It's got to be the right time
The right place
The right kind of moment
It's got to be the right kind of feeling
In deeper emotion
I'm holding back insecurity
Taking me two steps forward
One step back from you
I'm afraid
If I try to reach too soon
That you might back away
How can I try to hide
A feeling that's so wonderful
How do I tell you that
That you're the fire burning in my soul
'Cause when you look in my eyes
I'm a rabbit in the headlights
And when you're touchin' my skin
I'm a river in the moonlight
It's got to be the right time
The right place
The right kind of moment
It's got to be the right kind of feeling
In deeper emotion
'Cause when you look in my eyes
I'm a rabbit in the headlights
And baby when you're touchin' my skin
I'm a river in the moonlight
It's got to be the right time
The right place
The right kind of moment
It's got to be the right kind of feeling
In deeper emotion
