Not Tonight

I'm starin' at him, but I forget to pick my face up off the floor, mmm

We're in a crowd, but it feels like we're alone

Oh, my God, he just looked at me

And I just wanna tell him somethin' that he's never heard, ooh, ooh

But my lips won't let me tell him, tell him

I would say this, but

Maybe, maybe in another life

I could be the girl who walks up to the guy

And tells him, tells him how she feels inside

But not tonight, no, not tonight

What if he walks toward me

While all the blood is rushin' right to my brain?

What am I gonna say? What am I gonna say?

I may stop breathin' and freeze 'cause that's the story of my life

Wouldn't it be crazy if he felt how I felt? Overwhelmed and terrified

But he took my hand and he took his chance, can I have this dance?

If only we were in a Cinderella story

Maybe, maybe in another life

I could be the girl who walks up to the guy

And tells him, tells him how she feels inside

But not tonight, tonight

Who would I be to make my feelin's known?

I need a little audacity, but it's not in my bones

I'm standin' here terrified

Brokenhearted, I could die, ooh, oh

I, I'm starin' at him

But I forget to pick my face up off the floor

I feel like a fool, and even though I do

I only wanna tell him that I love him more, more

Maybe, maybe in another life

I would be the girl who walks up to the guy

And says, "Hey, my name is Elle, and I think you're kinda fly"

But not tonight (Not tonight)

Not tonight, tonight

Maybe, maybe in another life

I would be the girl who walks up to the guy

And tells him, tells him how she feels inside

But not tonight (Not tonight)

Not tonight

Maybe

Oh, maybe (Walks up to the guy)

Maybe (And tells him)

(Not tonight)
