For You I Will (Confidence) Lyrics
I'm wandering the streets in a world underneath it all
Nothing seems to be
Nothing tastes as sweet as what I can't have
Like you and the way that you're twisting your hair round your finger
Tonight I'm not afraid to tell you
What I feel about you
I'M GONNA MUSTER EVERY OUNCE OF CONFIDENCE I HAVE
AND CANNONBALL INTO THE WATER
I'M GONNA MUSTER EVERY OUNCE OF CONFIDENCE I HAVE
FOR YOU I WILL FOR YOU I WILL
Forgive me if I st-stutter
From all the clutter in my head
Cause I could fall asleep in those eyes
Like a water bed
Do I seem familiar
I crossed you in hallways a thousand times
No more camouflage
I want to be exposed
And not be afraid to fall
I'M GONNA MUSTER EVERY OUNCE OF CONFIDENCE I HAVE
AND CANNONBALL INTO THE WATER
I'M GONNA MUSTER EVERY OUNCE OF CONFIDENCE I HAVE
FOR YOU I WILL
ALWAYS WANT WHAT YOU CAN'T HAVE
BUT I GOT TO TRY
I'M GONNA MUSTER EVERY OUNCE OF CONFIDENCE I HAVE
FOR YOU I WILL, FOR YOU I WILL, FOR YOU I WILL
If I could dim the lights in the mall
And create a mood, I would
And shout out your name so it echoes in every room
I would
That's what I'd do
That's what I'd do
To get through to you
I'M GONNA MUSTER EVERY OUNCE OF CONFIDENCE I HAVE
AND CANNONBALL INTO THE WATER
I'M GONNA MUSTER EVERY OUNCE OF CONFIDENCE I HAVE
FOR YOU I WILL
ALWAYS WANT WHAT YOU CAN'T HAVE
BUT I GOT TO TRY
I'M GONNA MUSTER EVERY OUNCE OF CONFIDENCE I HAVE
FOR YOU I WILL, FOR YOU I WILL, FOR YOU I WILL
Nothing seems to be
Nothing tastes as sweet as what I can't have
Like you and the way that you're twisting your hair round your finger
Tonight I'm not afraid to tell you
What I feel about you
AND CANNONBALL INTO THE WATER
I'M GONNA MUSTER EVERY OUNCE OF CONFIDENCE I HAVE
FOR YOU I WILL FOR YOU I WILL
From all the clutter in my head
Cause I could fall asleep in those eyes
Like a water bed
Do I seem familiar
I crossed you in hallways a thousand times
No more camouflage
I want to be exposed
And not be afraid to fall
AND CANNONBALL INTO THE WATER
I'M GONNA MUSTER EVERY OUNCE OF CONFIDENCE I HAVE
FOR YOU I WILL
ALWAYS WANT WHAT YOU CAN'T HAVE
BUT I GOT TO TRY
I'M GONNA MUSTER EVERY OUNCE OF CONFIDENCE I HAVE
FOR YOU I WILL, FOR YOU I WILL, FOR YOU I WILL
And create a mood, I would
And shout out your name so it echoes in every room
I would
That's what I'd do
To get through to you
AND CANNONBALL INTO THE WATER
I'M GONNA MUSTER EVERY OUNCE OF CONFIDENCE I HAVE
FOR YOU I WILL
ALWAYS WANT WHAT YOU CAN'T HAVE
BUT I GOT TO TRY
I'M GONNA MUSTER EVERY OUNCE OF CONFIDENCE I HAVE
FOR YOU I WILL, FOR YOU I WILL, FOR YOU I WILL

It's about liking someone from afar who wears blinders, who hasn't ever really seen you even though they've passed you in the hall (at school?) hundreds of times. He's saying he wants this girl to notice him, and that he will muster all of the confidence he has in order to finally tell her how he feels. Telling your crush how you feel is thrilling and scary, like a cannonball into the water. And he's right, you always want what you can't have, but he's going to try to get the girl anyway. I think most people can relate.
Awesome song. I love his voice. :)
This song is helping me be able to tell the person I like how I feel, I want to talk to one of the morning announcements managers at my school and play this song and walk up to her and tell her, she's got a boyfriend, but I still need to tell her, I don't want to because of her boyfriend, but everyone I've been telling this issue to has told me to tell her before it's too late, so eventually I'm going to, just when I feel confident enough, (: See what I did there?
Thats cute.
Thats cute.
i've felt like this before, where you want to explain what you feel...and then you decide not to, but the girl just drives your mind insane and takes your emotions on a trip....a few hours later as she says goodnight, you realize you kinda cannonballed into water and your not sure if you should try to swim or just drown
ted wasn't very good at asking out girls in middle school. quite funny that hes considered so hot now, but he was SUCH a nerd back then. he got rejected. poor kid. but its a good song, he wrote it in 8th grade.
he has such a beautiful voice.
teddy geiger is so beautiful, as are his lyrics. i can definitely relate to this song, along with many other people. he is saying that he has had his eye on this girl, and he has seen her in the halls. she has a boyfriend, but he wants what he cant have. hes saying he gonna use all the confidence he can bring himself to have and try to get the girl.
I like this song. Today was my first time hearging it. I think that all of us have felt like this before at least once. I think Teddy is really hott. He is so gorgeous. I cant believe he was a nerd back then and no girl payed attention to him. I bet they wish they did no. lol.
love this song so much! just heard it today, and now i can't stop listening to it. i'm sure alot of people can relate to this song. teddy's amazing.
Aw this song is so cute! I've felt like this a thousand times! I heard it from my sister and just felt like I could really relate to it
