I Like You

He wants to be alone

He thinks he's on his own

But something changes with her laughter

She's silly and she's kind

He's shy, she doesn't mind

He sees she's someone to look after

His heart begins to stir

And he thinks

I like her

She's scared to be alone

She fears what is unknown

But something changes when he listens

He's thoughtful and he's warm

There's no need to perform

She sees he's someone she can go to

Her heart fills to the brim

And she thinks

I like him

I know that we're called to love each other

But isn't it nice

To like each other, too?

Ooh, ooh, ooh

He likes to bring her flowers

He's counting down the hours

Until he sees her after school's out

He's walking by her side

He feels there's no divide

There's nothing heavy in their silence

He takes her hand in his

And he says

I like you

She calls at 1 am

There's no one else but them

Left in the world, but it's alright now

She whispers and he sighs

She thinks she sees his eyes

There in the stars outside her window

She swallows back her tears

And she says

I like you

I like you

I know that we're called to love each other

But isn't it nice

To like each other, too?

Ooh, ooh, ooh

I like you

I like you

I like you
