[Verse 1]
Don't mean to get a little forward with you
Don't mean to get ahead of where we are
Don't mean to act a little nervous around you
Just a little nervous about my heart

[Chorus]
Because it's been awhile since I felt this feeling
That everything that you do gives me
It's been too long since somebody whispered
"Shut up and kiss me"

[Verse 2]
Didn't expect to be in this position
Didn't expect to have to rise above
My reputation for cynicism
Been a jaded lady when it comes to love

[Chorus]
But oh baby, just to feel this feeling
That everything that you do gives me
It's been too long since somebody whispered
"Shut up and kiss me"

[Bridge]
There's something 'bout the silent type
Attracting me to you
All business, baby, none of the hype
That no talker can live up to
