when we play basketball (you look at me)

You look at me, I look at you. 
I know what it is you want me to do.
I give you a smile, a crooked grin,
You give one right back, and I know you win.
 
I sigh in defeat; you know you've won too,
But you know I am scared, and you know just what to do 
You turn around, remembering when we first met
I aim for the basket; nothin' but net.
 
You look at me, I look at you.
You know what it is I want you to do.
You give me a smile, a crooked grin,
I give one right back, and you know I win.
