Lyrics: Yongkytown Arranger & Producer: Kevin Wijono Electric Guitars: Lee Jia Kang Recorded at Anvil Music SG Lyrics Verse 1: Oh I was doing just fine when you walked by, then my heart screamed out a slow down, slow down Oh girl you were just my type, and I fell when I looked you in the eyes like oh well, oh well Lost for words, yeah I'm mesmerized by you You leave me paralyzed Chorus: Your smouldering eyes, intentional You make me so emotional This is getting out of control And you don’t have to beckon twice Girl, I’ll make the sacrifice Cuz' I can’t get you outta my mind Can’t find the words You want this I'm here, I got this You’re the one I’m dying to find I'm lost for words Guess it’s the right place, right time Verse 2: Oo girl, just wanna let you know, finding you is like finding treasure, yeah treasure You're the one you're the one you're the one you're the one I wanna, yeah You're the one that I wanna hold Forever Chorus: Your hands and mine, so intertwined Girl your touch, just so divine I still can't believe you're mine And I don't want this night to end Feels like I'm in wonderland I just wanna be your man Can’t find the words You want this I’m here, I got this You’re the one I’m dying to find I'm lost for words Guess it’s the right place, right time

Creators: Taryn Elliot Roman Odintsov Jorge Tapia Nikunj Patel Pat Whelen Vanessa Garcia Yaroslav Shuraev Lyrics verse 1: it's funny how, when you meet someone for the first time the chemistry is undeniable and you wonder, is it real or is it fictional they're captivated by your first line the conversation is effortless and somehow, we forget about the time prechorus: but why, why fill up my mind, if you never could be mine? chorus: so why did i fall into your eyes? fooled by the highs guess i was blinded blame it on the ash and the flames and what remains is that i tried to be the late night, the sunrise, and everything in between the "call you in a minute, just to tell you how my day has been" the highlight of your weekend, summertime memories and now i have to leave for my sanity verse 2: you mentioned how it's been a while since you tried something new thought it was my cue brain in overdrive, so many things i wanna do with you now i'm stuck in my own fantasy when you said to me you were busy, for the nineteenth time prechorus: but why, why fill up my mind, if you never could be mine? chorus: so why did i fall into your eyes? fooled by the highs guess i was blinded blame it on the ash and the flames and what remains is that i tried to be the late night, the sunrise, and everything in between the "call you in a minute, just to tell you how my day has been" the highlight of your weekend, summertime memories and now i have to leave for my sanity outro: maybe we weren't meant to be to be you and me finally i'll see your eyes weren't meant for me
