about

My version of a bouncy, up-beat song. Also, my first serious multi-part vocal song.

lyrics

"Explanation"

I couldn't put my finger on it
The reason why my mouth went dry
How my heart dropped to the floor
The way I'd lie awake at night

I couldn't put my finger on it
The reason why your name would come to mind
How the words you said would linger in my ears
The way you touched me with your eyes

I finally found an explanation
A theory that holds true
I realized that I'm in love with you
I'm in love you


I couldn't put my finger on it
The reason why I felt so strong
The way a thousand girls could turn my head
But only you could turn me on

I couldn't put my finger on it
The reason why it must be you
The way a thousand girls could recite the words
But only you could know the tune

I finally found an explanation
A theory that holds true
I realized that I'm in love with you
I'm in love you
