Bloom [From "In Pieces: A New Musical (Highlights) (Deluxe Edition)"]

Let's go for a walk

Maybe we'll stumble upon a place with no wait

Uh, I don't know

Unless you're regretting this whole date thing

No, no, I just might be awkward

First dates are allowed to be awkward

It's a nice night

Let's just enjoy each other's company

I can already tell

Can already see it

You wanna handle it well

Handle somebody like me

A type-A city queen

Playing opposite your James Dean

But I'm figuring out

Figuring out what we'll meet between

I'm not trying to play games

I know that you're searching for

A million ways

To boil it down to why

This will only uphold doubt

But let me show you what I'm about

And we'll figure it out

We'll figure it out

Oh, you're charming

That's dangerous

Why is that dangerous?

I've seen this before

Girl falls for a guy sweet

Very sweet

Until he isolates her, drains her bank account

And somehow never gets convicted when she mysteriously disappears

I watch a lot of true crime docs

Whoa, wait, so now I'm giving off serial killer vibes

You asked me out

Fair, it's just, dating can feel so high-stakes

Look

It doesn't have to be deep

It doesn't have to be hard

If we want it, do you want it?

Yeah, I want it

Then lower that guard

Finding my maturity

Stepping into a new spark

Do I got it?

Yeah, you got it, really got it

Then we could start

Getting a little bit closer

Going beyond what's on paper

Unexpected life can happen when you make room

Keeping up the composure

But probably not for much longer

'Cause if you let it in for just a second

Suddenly, something near may want to bloom

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

Uh, hello, we have the right away here (whoa)

Oh, we don't

Well, being with you seems a little dangerous

Hit by a car right as we're finding love

I promise, I'm not hearing wedding bells yet

I mean, we barely know each other

Exactly, like

What's your favorite movie and your midnight treat?

Do you hog the covers or do you overheat?

And your passions, where you're headed

Are you driven?

That's a big leap from the first questions given

Opening up, I want to know more

What makes you tick?

What makes you weak?

Sure keeping it casual

Still I kind of think

We're getting a little bit closer

Going beyond what's on paper

Unexpected life can happen when you make room

Keeping up the composure

But probably not for much longer

'Cause as I let it in for just a second

Suddenly, something here sure wants to bloom

Oh, something wonderful, so beautiful and colorful

Makes me all kinds of new

Oh, I can't get enough, I got it rough

Instantly with you

It doesn't have to be deep

It doesn't have to be hard

Finding my maturity

Stepping into a new spark

Getting a little bit closer

Going beyond what's on paper

Unexpected life (can happen when you make room)

Keeping up the composure

But probably not for much longer

Since I let it in for just a second

Suddenly, watching this spontaneously bloom

Oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh
