Playin’ Chicken by Melodie Yvonne
I’m feelin’ just a little scared
I try to act like I don’t care
But really I just wanna touch you
Wishin’ that you’d feel that way too
Wishin’ I knew how to show you
That I’m not here tryin’ to own you
But I sure wish that you’d linger
‘Cause I can’t help I’m a dreamer
Thinkin’ ‘bout your dreamy oceans
Charged by your electric motions
Like a V8 in a frenzy
Revvin’ up until the light’s green
Just another game of chicken
With a cliff down at the road’s end
But I’m there already fallin’
Thinkin’ I might have to jump in
Now I’m stuck here in a freefall
Wishin’ that I coulda just stalled
‘Fore I charged full speed right at you
Shovin’ you right off that cliff too
Thinkin’ ‘bout your dreamy oceans
Charged by your electric motions
Like a V8 in a frenzy
Revvin’ up until the light’s green
Just another game of chicken
With a cliff down at the road’s end
But I’m there already fallin’
In fact I kind of just leapt off it
