High

I was scared
I didn't know what to think
I didn't know what to do
I saw you were high and you put on this idiotic smile
And so my heart beat faster

Oh, no, it was not at all bad
You were all loosen up and cheerful
Though your drowsy eyes were still the same
And you said things that made me truly thrilled
"Where have you been?" you asked
"Been looking for you back there."

If you remembered,
It was your second time saying you were looking for me
The first was a year ago when I had missed your play

It might have been the lights
The people
The place
The circumstances
It might have been your state of drunkenness
That got me overwhelmed with excitement

I was there all the time
I was watching you went on and on about stufff
I saw you standing under the spotlight
And so suddenly I felt the urge to hug you
To hug and hold you tight

But I couldn't
Watching you from afar was the best I could do
With heart that beat too fast
And I found myself carried away
By your ridiculously strong presence
And the state of being high was felt throughout my body
