I went looking for it, could have been anyone's kiss

Before it slips away
[Verse 2]
G F
Your touch stays on my skin, I feel it start sinking in
G F
Here come my insecurities, I almost expect you to leave
G F
Were you really looking for me, try your best to reassure me

I wasn't patient to meet you, am I too needy, am I too eager
G F
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know what this is but it doesn't feel wrong

I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know what this is but it doesn't feel wrong
