[Verse 1]
I walked through the door, just another day,
Had a million little things to say.
Then I stopped, I lost my line,
'Cause Maki was training right before my eyes.
I tried to act cool, tried to look away,
But my face turned red anyway.
She was focused, calm and strong,
And suddenly I forgot what I was doing all along.
[Pre-Chorus]
"Hey, Maki..." I tried to say,
But every word just slipped away.
She looked at me and raised an eyebrow,
And I swear my brain just said goodbye.
[Chorus]
I got caught off guard,
Now my heartbeat's beating way too hard.
I walked in cool, I walked in proud,
Now I'm blushing and I can't talk loud.
I got caught off guard,
You hit me like a shooting star.
I turn away, I try to hide,
But there's no place for my red face tonight.
[Verse 2]
She went right back to her routine,
Like nothing strange had ever been.
I stood there frozen by the door,
Trying to remember what I came here for.
"Are you okay?" she asked with a grin,
I said, "I'm fine!" — what a terrible spin.
My voice cracked at the worst time,
And somehow that made her laugh this time.
[Bridge]
Maybe next time I'll knock first,
Maybe next time I'll think before
I open up that door so fast
And walk into a moment I won't forget.
[Final Chorus]
I got caught off guard,
Now my heartbeat's beating way too hard.
I came inside with nothing to fear,
Then suddenly Maki was standing right here.
I'm turning red, she's smiling wide,
I don't know where I'm supposed to hide.
She goes back to training like nothing went wrong,
And I walk away humming this song.
[Outro]
Next time I'll knock...
Yeah, definitely.
Probably.
