Verse:
Just a warning that / this will be cliché

I gotta let it out / you make me feel some kinda way
Don’t know how else I can put this / every time I aim I just miss

Two years and I’m finally talking / two years and I’m finally speaking up
Somebody grab the speakers
Maybe I’ll have better luck next time / I’ll shout it out so my words will fly away
I’ll say
Chorus:
Boy you got me all tied up when I look at you
My stomach’s in knots tell me what to do
And I don’t know what to say so I turn away / I’m all tied up
I’m right side up when you’re not around
Upside down when you’re back in town
Maybe one day you’ll hear me say that I'm all tied up all day
Verse:
When I look at the sky / clouds spell your name
Someone help I’m feeling dizzy / like for real the room is spinning
Never mind I think / I’m just fangirling away
When you smile the sun shines brighter / and your eyes they light the night up
Prechorus:
Two years and you’ll catch up to me / two years and I’ll finally get my chance
Somebody clear the pathway
Maybe I’ll have better luck next time / I’ll shout it out so my words will fly away
I’ll say
Chorus:
Boy you got me all tied up when I look at you
My stomach’s in knots tell me what to do
And I don’t know what to say so I turn away (I’m all tied up)
I’m right side up when you’re not around
Upside down when you’re back in town
Maybe one day you’ll hear me say (I’m all tied up)
You got me feeling like I’m wasted I taste it do I love it or hate it
Boy you got me all tied up / but I don’t really mind it as long as I’m tied to you
Bridge:
All tied up / so in love
So in love / got me all tied up
All tied up / so in love
So in love
Chorus:
Boy you got me all tied up when I look at you
My stomach’s in knots tell me what to do
And I don’t know what to say so I turn away (I’m all tied up)
I’m right side up when you’re not around
Upside down when you’re back in town
Maybe one day you’ll hear me say (I’m all tied up)
You got me feeling like I’m wasted I taste it do I love it or hate it
Boy you got me all tied up / but I don’t really mind it as long as I’m tied to you
