D#
To fall in love isn’t easy when you're afraid of
D#maj7
heights
                                                G#
But I can’t help but fall when I look into your eyes
So blue, I love the hue
     A#               A#7
But more than that, I do love you and -

Every night I'm in bed,
I fight to keep you from my mind and
Almost every day,
that's how I spend most of my time
It's true, there is no use
I can't escape the thought of you
So

Chorus:
D#
Would you trust me to catch you at
                   D#maj7
the bottom of the pool?
                                            G#
If I told you my whole heart, that I loved you that
                          A# A#7
I loved you that, I loved you
D#
But I’m afraid, I’m scared,
                             D#maj7
of those romantic words, you see?
                                             G#
Ain’t ironic how those are just the songs I sing
about

My lovely, do you really love me?
        A#                           A#7
When I hear you whisper under your breath

I lost you when I lost me, didn't mean to
at the time
All the hurt I was feeling in my heart,
it made me blind to you
What you'd been through, I paid no mind
Though I meant to and-
All the fire I felt within my bones became eclipsed
Just the touch of your hands, you're heart
and, oh my God, your lips
Oh, I just wish that
I just wish that you would

Chorus:
Would you trust me to catch you at
the bottom of the pool
If I told you, my whole heart, that I loved you
That I loved you, that I loved you?
But I'm afraid, I'm scared,
of those romantic words, you see?
Ain't it ironic how those are just the songs
I sing about?
My lovely, do you really love me?
When I hear you whisper under your breath,
"I love you"
I love you
I love you
Oh, it's true, oh-ohh

        D#
I love you
      D#maj7
I love you
        G#
I love you,  you,  you,
         A#  A#7
Oh it's true, oh

Chorus:
Would you trust me to catch you at
the bottom of the pool
If I told you, my whole heart, that I loved you
That I loved you, that I loved you?
But I'm afraid, I'm scared, of those
romantic words, you see?
Ain't it ironic how those are just
the songs I sing about?
My lovely, do you really love me?
When I hear you whisper under your breath
