Science

Dear future potential,
It’s been a week since I met you
And I spend everyday guessing what your life sounds like

You grew up on an island (island)
Told me you’re into science (science)
Well in that case, Coldplay warned me ahead of time

I could write you a love song a day
I could take you to my favourite cafe
In time, do family stuff, ooh
We could spend the whole night by the sea
Or just Sundays binge watching TV
In time, we could fall in love
Yeah I can be good, sometimes
I wanna steal all your midnights
And i hope you feel it too
Cause it’s not the kind of science you’re used to

Dear future potential
I believe I should mention
That I’ve been trying to run into you for the last few days

I’ll admit that I’m scared
And I’m not quite prepared
For regret I could face if we let this slip away

I could write you a love song a day
I could take you to my favourite cafe
In time do family stuff ooh (family stuff)
We could spend the whole night by the sea
Or just Sundays binge watching TV
In time, we could fall in love
Yeah I can be good, sometimes
I wanna steal all your midnights
And I hope you feel it too
Cause it’s not the kind of science you’re used to

Now I spend my days just tracking my stories
To maybe see your name on the list
The idea of you
Makes all my wishes come true

Wish I practiced love before i met you
I’ll need more experience than that
Cause if we cut to the chase
You could me more than a mistake yeah

Wish I could call you in the middle of night
Send you all the songs that I write about you, hmm
You cross my mind at 7am
And I’m not even awake until 10
Bet you don’t have a clue
That i could be good sometimes
Show me stomach butterflies
How long till you realise
This is not the kind of science you’re used
I’m down to spending days in the lab
Or maybe weekends in your hometown
Cause typical dating
Is overrated

Dear future potential
Give it just a few months time
We could be a discovery that could change your life
