One tries to be coy
one tries to be smart
but really it's 'cause
they just can't start

to say all the things
they long to say,
for they never thought
they'd see this day

now happiness has 
come so near,
they both are overcome
with fear

and when finally a 
word is said
one feels so stupid
they wish instead

they were someplace 
else you see,
not sitting here
with brain empty,

Oh no, what can 
break this ice?
Just kiss me once
and kiss me twice!
