Haven’t Told Her Lyrics

[Verse 1]
She hit me like a blinding light and I was born
And gravity won't keep my feet down anymore
If you've seen her then you'd understand

[Verse 2]
An angel in my dawn of white, the way she moves
She could make your heart beat faster than you knew
She's got a smile that can shake you, vibe that can break you
Eyes that can bring the heat
But there's just one thing that I haven't told her

[Chorus]
I know I love her but I'm tongue tied
I wanna wait until the moment's right
And I don't wanna lose her
(There's just one thing that I haven't told her)

[Verse 3]
Well, I've been holding back so much I'm in reverse
And buying her that drugstore diamond made it worse
Like the silver on her skin stood for something; a promise

[Verse 4]
I don't wanna burn out quick if she's the one
Like the fire in between a bullet and the gun
Because she's brighter than Vegas, hotter than Hades
Cool enough to make you freeze
But there's just one thing that I haven't told her
[Chorus]
I know I love her but I'm tongue tied
I wanna wait until the moment's right
And I don't wanna lose her
(But there's just one thing that I haven't told her)
She's got me higher than a satellite
She makes everything alright
And I don't wanna lose her
But there's just one thing that I haven't told her

[Bridge]
Do you know what you do to me?
I've been captured, waiting for the rapture
Am I just a fool to believe this is it, this is it?

So tell me that you feel the same
Can we say what we wanna say?
'Cause there's just one thing that I haven't told her

[Chorus]
I know I love her but I'm tongue tied
I wanna wait until the moment's right
And I don't wanna lose her
(But there's just one thing that I haven't told her)
She's got me higher than a satellite
She makes everything alright
But I don't wanna lose her
(But there's just one thing that I haven't told her)
She hit me like a blinding light and I was born
