Micah Lindley - What Are We? Lyrics

A few months ago, I would not have thought we'd be this close
Never thought that you'd be the one I'd want to be with most
And there we were, and I don't think I'd ever been more uncertain in my life
It's not what I planned, but I know now we will be just fine
There's just one prominent thought that's on my mind

What is this
Cause I want it
What is this
Cause I don't want it to go away
Can we just sit here for a while
And hope that the time won't pass us by
Cause I just want to stay here with you

A few months ago I had written a different song
One that I'd never show you to explain where I went wrong
Soon there we were, sittin' on this couch with a dog between our legs
And neither of us knew what the heck was running through our heads
Except for one mutual thought that was on our minds

What is this
Cause I want it
What is this
Cause I don't want it to go away
Can we just sit here for a while
And hope that the time won't pass us by
Cause I just want to stay here with you

I said I should probably leave like four times
But instead we sat and talked in the warm light
Of the fire
And the TV
Trying to keep our thoughts where they should be
The minutes turned to hours as the day had died
But parting ways is useless when there's nothing to hide
And we're safe
Here together
I think we could have stayed there forever
So at last I finally stated that I needed to go
Figured I should do it now but I still moved slow
Made my way across the couch and put my feet on the floor
But then you kissed my face

What is this
Cause I want it
What is this
You know I don't think it will go away
Can we just sit here for a while
And hope that the time won't pass us by
Cause I just want to stay here with you
