Butterflies Don\\\'t Lie

Butterflies Don�t Lie

You walk by and my heart beats
A thousand times at once it seems
And every time you look at me
I have to tell myself to breathe
With just a smile you capture me
And I start to melt
Emotions then take over me
Like I�ve never felt

I could tell my heart each time
It isn�t love. He�s just a guy.
That there�s nothing there and what I feel
Is in my head. It isn�t real.
But I can�t deny
I can�t even try, because I know inside
Butterflies don�t lie.

Is there a chance you could be mine
If I let you see inside?
Or do you love someone else?
Should I keep this to myself?
I could risk a broken heart by telling you the truth
Or I could keep my secret safe
And when I see you

I could tell my heart each time
It isn�t love. He�s just a guy.
That there�s nothing there and what I feel
Is in my head. It isn�t real.
But I can�t deny.
I can�t even try, because I know inside
Butterflies don�t lie.

Once again there you are
Anxiousness fills my nervous heart
Butterflies fluttering
Can only mean one thing�

I could tell my heart each time
It isn�t love. He�s just a guy.
That there�s nothing there and what I feel
Is in my head. It isn�t real.
But I can�t deny
I can�t even try, because I know inside
Butterflies don�t lie.
