When You're in Love Songtext
von Helen J Shen & Darren Criss

When you′re in love
You are the loneliest
You're only half
When one is what you were
You′re part instead of whole
When you're in love
You are the loneliest

Sitting by your side as the day drifts by
Seeing how you frown when you get impatient
Helping you hold on to a moment that made you happy
Hoping that you'll think what I say is right
Wanting you to laugh at my unintended charm

When you′re in love
You′re never satisfied
The thing you want
Is always out of reach
A need without a name
When you're in love
You′re never satisfied


Sitting by your side as the day drifts by
Watching how you try when I'm done with trying
Making little plans that I know will make you happy
Hoping when I tease that you′ll put up a fight
Wanting you to know all the funny things I am

When I'm
Sitting by your side...
Seeing how you frown...
Watching how you try...
Hoping that you′ll think what I say is right...
Making little plans...
Sitting by your side as the day drifts by...

Now I —
Now I'm hoping that you feel all the things I feel
Wishing that you want me to sit beside you
Wanting now to learn all the things you are
Waiting for a chance to invite you in my heart

Talking in a car in the afternoon
Sitting by your side on a sunny day


When you're in love... (When you′re in love...)
You′re only half... (The thing you want...)
When you're in love... (When you′re in love...)
The thing you want... (You're only half...)
When you′re in love... (When you're in love...)
When you′re in love—!
