【双语歌词】

I saw you on a Sunday in a cafe
星期天我在咖啡馆看见了你

And all you did was look my way
而你也注视着我,没有回避

And my heart started to race
我的心怦怦狂跳

And my hands started to shake, yeah
双手也开始颤抖

I heard you asked about me through a friend
我听见你向朋友打听我

And my adrenaline kicked in
我的肾上腺素开始激增

Cause I've been asking about you too
因为我也曾这样打探过你的消息

And now we're out here in this room
现在我们都走出了咖啡馆

 

I get a little bit nervous around you

Get a little bit stressed out, when I think about you
一想到你,我有点压力

Get a little excited
内心激动不已

Baby, when I think about you, yeah
亲爱的,一想到你

Talk a little too much around you
在你身边,我说的有点多

Get a little self-conscious when I think about you

Get a little excited

Baby, when I think about you

Yeah, when I think about you, babe

We walked in the rain
我们漫步在雨中

A couple blocks to your apartment
离你的公寓还有两个街区

You told me to come inside
你招呼我进去

Caught me staring in your eyes
我情不自禁地凝视你的双眼

And I'm not usually like this
平时我不是这样的

But I like what you're doing to me
但我喜欢你这么对我

Ah, what you're doing to me
我喜欢你对我的方式
