lyrics

I hate how you make me feel like a girl
Like I need to keep my legs shaved and make sure my hair's curled
I wanna talk about you all the time, but I don't wanna be that girl you make me lose my mind

And maybe I'm a pessimist but baby I could get used to this
Cuz I like the way you talk
And I like the way you smile
And when I'm in your room I wanna stay for a while

You take me on dates to shows which lets me know you really care
I love the way you make me laugh and the way you touch my hair
I like when you hold me tight and tell me I'm cute
It feels like you're breaking me but it's something I could get used to

And maybe I'm a pessimist but baby I could get used to this
Cuz I like the way you talk
And I like the way you smile
And when I'm in your room I wanna stay for a while

It's weird how alike we are but different at the same time
You're cooler than me but I guess that's just fine
You're into to my band without even hearing us
That means a lot to me cuz we're really not worth much

And maybe I'm a pessimist but baby I could get used to this
Cuz I like the way you talk
And I like the way you smile
And when I'm in your room I wanna stay for a while

I'm scared of what you're doing to me, I'm scared you'll break my heart
It's worth the risk though cuz I don't want to be apart
