Can't Play It Cool

Lyrics

[Verse 1] You walk in late, rain still on your coat Say my name, and I forget my note I had a plan, had a line rehearsed Then you smile and make it ten times worse [Pre-Chorus] I count to four, I look away You ask one thing, I give my day [Chorus] I can’t play it cool when you’re near me Every little move makes it clear, see I try to act like my heart’s on mute Then you lean in and I tell the truth I can’t play it cool, no, I can’t pretend One hello and I’m gone again I can’t play it cool when you’re near me You make a secret out of nothing easy [Verse 2] Your coffee order’s written in my phone I know the route you take to get back home My friends all grin when you cross the room I change the subject, but they know the tune [Pre-Chorus] I count to four, I look away You ask one thing, I give my day [Chorus] I can’t play it cool when you’re near me Every little move makes it clear, see I try to act like my heart’s on mute Then you lean in and I tell the truth I can’t play it cool, no, I can’t pretend One hello and I’m gone again I can’t play it cool when you’re near me You make a secret out of nothing easy [Bridge] If you already know, then say it plain I’m done pretending I don’t feel a thing No more careful words, no careful pose You’ve got my answer, everybody knows [Final Chorus] I can’t play it cool when you’re near me Every little move makes it clear, see I try to act like my heart’s on mute Then you lean in and I tell the truth I can’t play it cool, no, I can’t pretend One hello and I’m gone again I can’t play it cool when you’re near me You make a secret out of nothing easy [Outro] Can’t play it cool Not with you
