Lyrics of Deer in the Headlights – Owl City

Met a girl in the parking lot
And all I did was say hello
Her pepper spray made it rather hard
For me to walk her home
But I guess that’s the way it goes

Tell me again, was it love at first sight
When I walked by and you caught my eye?
Didn’t you know love could shine this bright?
Well, smile because you’re the deer in headlights

Met a girl with a graceful charm
But when beauty met the beast he froze
Got the sense I was not her type
By the black eye and bloody nose
But I guess that’s the way it goes

Tell me again, was it love at first sight
When I walked by and you caught my eye?
Didn’t you know love could shine this bright?
Well, smile because you’re the deer in headlights

It’s suffocating to say
But the female mystique takes my breath away
So give me a smile or give me a sneer
‘Cause I’m trying to guess here

Tell me again, was it love at first sight
When I walked by and you caught my eye?
Didn’t you know love could shine this bright?
I’m sorry I ever tried, you’re the deer in headlights

Tell me again, was it love at first sight
When I walked by and you caught my eye?
Didn’t you know love could shine this bright?

If life was a game you would never play nice
If love was a beam, you’d be blind in both eyes
Put your sunglasses on
‘Cause you’re the deer in the headlights

You’re the deer in the headlights
You’re the deer in the headlights
