Lyrics
[ INTRO — Piano solo. La voz sola sobre el silencio. ]
Didn't mean to stare, baby, but I did,
something in you opened up a door I kept hid,
I wasn't looking for a thing that night I swear,
but something in the room put you right there.
[ VERSE 1 ]
It was a Friday at the end of the summer heat,
you were standing by the window looking so complete,
talking to somebody that I didn't know,
laughing at something with a voice low and slow,
and I was pretending to look somewhere at the door,
acting like I wasn't noticing, like I'd seen before,
someone make a room feel smaller just by being in it,
make me feel like everything just stopped for a minute,
my body had already made the call before my brain,
decided that I needed to know your name,
not in love yet — something quieter, something new,
just a pull in my chest going straight to you.
[ HOOK ]
First look, first second, first time I breathe,
something in the room said baby don't leave,
first look, I didn't know what I was starting,
first look and my whole heart was departing,
toward something I couldn't name or place,
just knew I wanted to keep seeing your face.
[ VERSE 2 ]
You laughed at something and I felt it in my spine,
which is embarrassing but I'm claiming it as mine,
'cause everything we had began right there that night,
in that room, in that heat, in that particular light,
I memorized the angle of your jaw without trying,
the way you held your drink, the way you kept on smiling,
at whatever he said — I wanted to be the one,
you smiled at like that, I wanted to be the one,
to say the thing that made you laugh that way,
and I didn't know yet what I'd have to pay,
for the privilege of being in your orbit, your space,
for the right to finally see your face.
[ BRIDGE ]
I wish I could go back to that room tonight,
not to change a single thing — just to feel it right,
the before, the not-yet, the still-possible then,
before I knew I'd never feel that way again.
[ HOOK — Out ]
First look, first second, first time I breathe,
something in the room said baby don't leave,
first look, I didn't know what I was starting,
first look and my whole heart was departing,
toward something I couldn't name or place,
just knew I wanted to keep seeing your face.
Didn't mean to stare, baby, but I did,
something in you opened up a door I kept hid,
I wasn't looking for a thing that night I swear,
but something in the room put you right there.
