Dodging your love, but it's sneaking in
Faking the rush, but it's genuine
You are, you are, you are
The flame that's runnin' my fever
The hit that made me so eager
Hope your heart is on a timer
'Cause when it's runnin', then it's runnin' me

Even when we just talk
That's where it starts to fall
And I feel like I'm out of my league
Yeah, when you just call
You reach through the phone
And you wrap your strong hands around me

You are an athlete
On the field, make me weak in my knees
You are an athlete
And I need you the most
And I want you on my team
I want you on my team

Where are you now as it's sinking in?
Stay locked on my eyes, don't let go of it
You are, you are, you are
The flame that's runnin' my fever
The hit that made me so eager?
Hope your heart is on a timer
'Cause when it's runnin', then it's runnin' me

Even when we just talk
That's where it starts to fall
And I feel like I'm out of my league
Yeah, when you just call
You reach through the phone
And you wrap your strong hands around me

You are an athlete
On the field make me weak in my knees
You are an athlete
And I need you the most
And I want you on my team
I want you on my team
I want you on my team
