The Neighbors Think We're Making Love
[Verse]
Our hearts beat so loud it shakes the floor
Holding on to feelings we can't ignore
We're stuck in that hollow space between desire and fear
When I reach to touch your face I hesitate
everything moves slower when we contemplate
[Chorus]
The neighbors think we’re making love
Oh, the neighbors think we're making love
But we're just frozen with desperate desire
Not yet brave enough
To light the fire
Our hearts beat so loud
A rhythmic pulse pounding in sync
We're just lost in the space where we overthink
The neighbors think we're making love
[Verse 2]
Our fingers reach out to touch, but they never connect
Our breathing is as ragged as a storm before it lands
Baby, is this love, or are we just sinking in quicksand
I’m drowning in feelings for you that I can't understand
The blood rushes hot through my veins and It mocks my doubt
I’m five feet away, and my heart is screaming to break out
[Chorus]
The neighbors think we’re making love
Oh, the neighbors think we're making love
But we're just frozen with desperate desire
Not yet brave enough
To light the fire
Our hearts beat so loud
A rhythmic pulse pounding in sync
We're just lost in the space where we overthink
The neighbors think we're making love
But we're just frozen with desperate desire
