Starstruck

written: june 16th, 2023

fun fact: it feels like i wrote this ages ago lmao

1ST VERSE:

Oh, It's so like me

To get caught up in summer love

My hearts already been torn enough

Ruptured, damage done

Can you assure you'll help me get through?

Cause I can't help it if it's too soon

I think I'm in love with you

And I know you are too

So should I make a move?

Should I leave that up to you?

PRE-CHORUS:

I guess I kinda like this

Yet my heart fights with fists

In the past, ignorance was bliss

Days there was nothing like this

No, her love I don't miss

It's your lips I wish to kiss

CHORUS:

Thought I was out of luck

Now you got me starstruck

And though I should run

I'm willing to put my heart on the line

Only if you'll be mine

Cause you've got me starstruck

POST-CHORUS:

I think it's love ( is it love? )

I'm so starstruck ( starstruck )

2ND VERSE:

With love, I once couldn't win

Like a game, love was rigged

And met with a glitch

For a couple months

I really thought love don't exist

Until you came with

A love so different

One I hadn't yet experienced

Full relationship commitment

And terms of endearment

Do I even deserve a love like this?

PRE-CHORUS:

I guess I kinda like this

Yet my heart fights with fists

I usually don't dive right in

High tide risks like this

But I'm so taken by you

And I adore the new starry view

CHORUS:

Thought I was out of luck

Now you got me starstruck

And though I should run

I'm willing to put my heart on the line

Only if you'll be mine

Cause you've got me starstruck

POST-CHORUS:

I think it's love ( is it love? )

I'm so starstruck ( starstruck )

BRIDGE:

I don't need to talk to the moon

The way that I used to

Cause now I've got you

And maybe it's too soon

But I've got 'Love Again' on full volume

Maybe it's too soon

But you make my heart beat

And you're engraved in my faded daydream

CHORUS:

Thought I was out of luck

Now you got me starstruck

And though I should run

I'm willing to put my heart on the line

Only if you'll be mine

Cause you've got me starstruck

OUTRO:

I know it's love ( it's love )

I'm so starstruck ( starstruck )

Yeah, so we're pretty much continuing with the whole star theme ig ( I'm a mf stargirl lmao ) bc I adore a starry sky and I feel like the aesthetic/ vibe of a lot of songs initially written for this concept- being Faded Daydreams- is meant to be dreamy, and what's more dreamy than the starry sky? 

I dedicate this song to my future lover who's gonna love me the way I love them ❤

My own songs referenced: Ignorance Is Bliss, Nothing Like This, Love's A Game, Love Don't Exist and album title Faded Daydreams

Others: Talking To The Moon by Bruno Mars and Love Again by Dua Lipa

This song is basically about learning to love again after healing from a heart break that majorly impacted you and your views on love. In a sense, you're afraid to love again because last time it turned out the romantic feelings weren't reciprocated as you yearned those feelings to be. Last time, you felt slightly played. 

You're hoping that this time won't end up lile last time, because you're starting to feel so romantically inclined towards your new love interest/lover and it's obvious they feel the same too. You're ready to start anew with them and hope it won't end in disaster. You are in love, good for you <3
