Lyrics Rabbit in the Headlights - Michael Oakley

Rabbit in the Headlights

It’s gotta be me
There’s no way
Someone else could feel this way
I feel about you
And we’re free
To be what we want
And touch the sky together
Before you came around
I was drowning in the depths of despair
And then when you finally came
It’s funny you were unaware
That when you look in my eyes
I’m a rabbit in the headlights
And when you’re touchin' my skin
I’m a river in the moonlight
It’s got to be the right time
The right place
The right kind of moment
It’s got to be the right kind of feeling
And deeper emotion
I’m holding back insecurity
Taking me two steps forward
And one step back from you
I’m afraid
If I try to reach too soon
That you might back away
How can I try to hide
A feeling that’s so wonderful
How do I tell you that
You’re the fire burning in my soul
'Cause when you look in my eyes
I’m a rabbit in the headlights
And when you’re touchin' my skin
I’m a river in the moonlight
It’s got to be the right time
The right place
The right kind of moment
It’s got to be the right kind of feeling
And deeper emotion
'Cause when you look in my eyes
I’m a rabbit in the headlights
And baby when you’re touchin' my skin
I’m a river in the moonlight
It’s got to be the right time
The right place
The right kind of moment
It’s got to be the right kind of feeling
And deeper emotion
