Boys Like You - Anna Clendening

Before I met you

I never felt good enough

Before I let you in

I’d already given up

Left on read, no reply

Left me just, wonderin' why

Now I’m skeptical of love

So when you hold my hand

Do you wanna hold my heart?

When you say you want me

Is it all of me or just one part?

So when you hold my hand

Do you wanna hold my heart?

When you say you want me

Mama said there’d be boys like you

Tearin' my heart in two

Doin' what you do best

Takin' me for a ride

Tellin' me pretty little lies

But with you I can’t resist

I’m terrified

But I’ll never let you know

Social suicide

If I ever let it show

Everything feels just right

I fall in place, we fall in line

I’ll never let you go

So when you hold my hand

Do you wanna hold my heart?

When you say you want me

Is it all of me or just one part?

So when you hold my hand

Do you wanna hold my heart?

When you say you want me

Is it all of me?

Yeah

Mama said there’d be boys like you

Tearin' my heart in two

Doin' what you do best

Takin' me for a ride

Tellin' me pretty little lies

But with you I can’t resist

So when you hold me

(When you hold me)

Am I the only one?

Do you wanna know me?

(Do you wanna know me?)

Or is this all just for fun?

Mama said there’d be boys like you

Tearin' my heart in two

Doin' what you do best

Takin' me for a ride

Tellin' me pretty little lies

But with you I can’t resist

No, no

Maybe mama doesn’t always know best

Mama said there’d be boys like you

Too good to be true

Doin' what you do best

Takin' me for a ride

Tellin' me pretty little lies

But for you, for you, for you

I’ll take that risk
