You make me smile wider
With each sweet thing you say
You make me laugh harder
At the impersonations and jokes every day
You make me sing louder
To those sappy songs about love
You make me blush deeper
When you ask what I’m thinking of.

You make me feel comfortable
When I’m used to feeling tense
You make me feel understood
When, to most people, I make no sense.
You make me feel alive
When lately I’ve felt withdrawn
You make me feel like letting go
When for too long, I’ve been hanging on.

You make me nervous
But in the best possible way
You make me curious
As my caution falls away
You make me vulnerable
Uncover my pain
You make me content
I can’t possibly complain.

You make me,
You make me….
Fall for you.
