Crushed Out Lyrics

Chorus:
You know I'm crushed out on you and you alone
If I thought you had my number I'd stay home by the phone
Day and night I sit and wait for you to call me
But only time will show how far this can go

Verse 1:
His voice it comforts me
Sweet and raspy tone of love
It trails me into dreams
I wanna wake up to it(up to it)
Full blast full blast)
His name alone
Gives me a rush
What a feeling
I can feel it in my bones
A spirit
I'm craving in my soul
You could feel it all
But you don't even know

Chorus:
That I'm crushed out on you and you alone
If I thought you had my number I'd stay home by the phone
Day and night I sit and wait for you to call me
But only time will show how far this can go

Verse 2:
I'm longing for the space and time to chill with you
Thinking of the ways that I could keep my cool
But this brown eyed girl
And brown eyed boy
Time stood still
And passed us by
Cause baby I
I've been waiting for a little time
Oh and you were so beautiful and that's?
You're my kind of guy
If I had a type of guy, I'd say it's you
So don't let them bring you down
Cause right about now I like having you around
And if it's real that's where hearts resides

Chorus:
And I'm crushed out on you and you alone
If I thought you had my number I'd stay home by the phone
Day and night I sit and wait for you to call me
But only time will show how far this can go

Bridge:
If you think of me
Half as much as I do you
Confide in me
Lets play for keeps
And I can tell you all the things
I longed to say
The future wants
We'll find a way
And we can let it go

Chorus:
Cause I'm crushed out on you and you alone
If I thought you had my number I'd stay home by the phone
Day and night I sit and wait for you to call me
But only time will show how far this can go

I'm crushed out on you and you alone
If I thought you had my number I'd stay home by the phone
Day and night I sit and wait for you to call me
But only time will show how far this can go
