Just Let A Girl

I force myself to look away, but his charms seem to draw me in,
Drawing me in like a fish on a hook,
I find myself lost in his eyes, it’s like ecstasy,
Don’t even get me started on his hair, it’s like I was born to play with it, born to have it tangled in my fingers,
With his lips on mine,
Getting lost in all consciousness, Electric shots plummeting down my spine,
I can feel the chemistry, I t’s sizzling in the air,
But can he feel it? I guess not,
He doesn’t even know my name,
Just let a girl dream,
Just let a girl have a fantasy,
Just let a girl have the taste for love,
Just let a girl loose all consciousness in the most electrifying kiss,
Just let a girl get lost in his eyes,
Is it some crime,
Knowing that deep down there’s a chance
