I'm on the far end of the car;
Scared of falling in love again.
She must think I'm introverted, but I'm furthest from that.
My nerves chatter my teeth.
Chills run the length of her spine when I reach over to clasp her hand in mine.
I spill my drink on her at a drive-in movie.
She must think I'm introverted, but I'm furthest from that.
Chills run the length of my spine.
She laughed and took it with a grain of salt.
She must think I'm introverted, but I'm furthest from that.
Stop the shyness, she said, flirtatiously hitting my stomach.
She must think I'm introverted, but I swear to God, I'm not.
