Carnival Rides by A Bad Night For A Hero

So we laced our hands together
and that alone just made my day
and she wants to ride The Zipper
so we step into the cage
and I can feel us getting higher
and you can see that it's not safe
but before they go and drop us
she calmly turns to kiss my face

I can't tell if the girl or the carnival rides
got me shaking inside
"Just play it cool"
I feel my heart coming upchuck
Is it good, is it bad luck
if I die in here with you?
Tell me, what's a boy to do?

So we stumble through the exit
I hear that Brandon almost died
so we climb inside the ferris wheel
to cure my fear of frightening heights
and I can see us getting higher
and you can see your house from here
A million times your lips touched mine
and that alone just made my year

(Chorus)

I'd like to say "I love you"
but I don't want to pay
all these fees and these fines
that my heart has designed
just to keep me away,
from hurting you
I can see that you're scared of
me more than the air that
we suddenly seem to fall right through

(Chorus)

Oh you see, well she cries when I touch her
but oh god, I love her
so what else can I do?
I could stay at arm's length like I'm clever
but oh no, I'd never
I know she loves me too

So tell me
What's a boy to do?
