Lovers Instead Lyrics by Caleb Small

Spectrum

2021

[Verse 1]
Front seat of their car
Out here in the dark
Pull up with my friends
Don’t know if I can
I know that you’re here
Then I see you appear
Tell me I look good
Man I hope it’s sincere
I hide how I feel
So that it seems unreal
I wanna get close but
I cannot reveal

[Pre-Chorus]
From the balcony the music blasts and I
Don’t know if I should grab your hand tonight

[Chorus]
You make me feel like magic
You make me feel I’m whole
Every move you make will always take me home
Walking up the stairs now
We get into bed
Then you turned and you said
Let’s be lovers instead

[Verse 2]
We then take a walk
Then sit and we talk
You laugh at my jokes
I feel the skip of my heart
I’m texting my friends
Every second, hit send
Then you kiss my lips
And my soul ascends
Can’t hide how I feel
I want this to be real
I wanna get close but
I’m still scared to reveal

[Pre-Chorus]
From the balcony the music blasts and I’m
Hoping that you will finally say, “You’re mine”

[Chorus]
You make me feel like magic
You make me feel I’m whole
Every move you make will always take me home
Walking up the stairs now
We get into bed
Then you turned and you said
Let’s be lovers instead
You make me feel like magic
You make me feel I’m whole
Every move you make will always take me home
Walking up the stairs now
We get into bed
Then you turned and you said
Let’s be lovers instead

[Bridge]
I’ve been waiting for this
This has been my dream
For you to finally hold me
And to be finally be
Loved and fully wanted
By a man and I
Listen while you tell me
While the stars align

[Chorus]
You make me feel like magic
You make me feel I’m whole
Every move you make will always take me home
Walking up the stairs now
We get into bed
Then you turned and you said
Let’s be lovers instead
You make me feel like magic
You make me feel I’m whole
Every move you make will always take me home
Walking out the house now
Leaned and my kissed my head
And you turned and you said
We’re now lovers instead
