[Verse 1]
This is new I am not used to happy love
When did choice play a part of what I am free of
I have all of the above in my mind below
I will paint your portrait though when we're moving slow
[Verse 2]
I'm a foreigner to everything that you are
You're a foreigner to everthing in my heart
I've thought all about the times when I had to leave
Because I couldn't understand what you mean to me
And no I never understand how I'm feeling
[Chorus]
You are right but not tonight
Counting down I feel contrived
On the behalf of every love
That I ever have dreamed of
[Verse 3]
I don't know how to read books anymore
I cling not to what I am but what I was before
I'm avoiding all the thought that we have to bleed
Because I never wanna lose what you mean to me
No I never wanna lose how I'm feeling
[Chorus]
You are right but not tonight
Counting down I feel contrived
On the behalf of every love
That I ever have dreamed of
[Verse 4]
Advance my heart this is all a phase
I can react to this for days
Think me dry do I think at all
I feel lover I feel small
Advance my heart this is all a phase
Oh I can react to this for days
Think me dry do I think at all
I feel lover I feel small
[Chorus]
You are right but not tonight
Counting down I feel contrived
On the behalf of every love
That I ever have dreamed of
That I ever have dreamed of
I feel lover I feel small
