Akala - Love In My Eyes Lyrics

[Chorus]

Remember when I met you?
Heart went racing,
But I won't chase I was in a strange place then,
Faking, what on my face was blatant,
You could be mine but I'm scared of the taking,
Pacing, I was not used to the waiting; contemplating,
And I'm not talking about consummating,
Just conversation, let alone debating.
All the time in the world is all we've got and there's no need for waiting,
All the thoughts in my mind of what we could find got me anticipating,
Right now we're just friends and I like how we're shaping,
Plus I need time for the doubts that I'm facing,
Not about you, it's me who needs changing,
Look on my face you'll see that I'm gazing

But life is no oasis,
And soon things got complicated,
So I jumped ship, real quick,
'Cause I hit ship, sink and I really cannot take it,
'Cause I've never been here before,
In fact no where near before,
I don't quite know,
But I feel it from my afro to my big toe,
It's not working and I need my space,
Plus I gotta deal with this bullshit case,
So we parted ways and it felt real strange,
Didn't get much done with my days,
How will we ever see eye to eye?
I don't agree with myself even half the time,
Then it dawned on me, it's never plain sailing,
You can't succeed if you're afraid of failing

All the time in the world is all we have,
And there's no need for racing,
All the thoughts on my mind of what we could find got me anticipating,
Right now we're best friends and I like how we're shaping,
Plus I got over the doubts I was facing,
Couldn't change time but time had me changing,
Now on my face you'll see when I'm gazing
