Don't Tell My Boyfriend

Waiting at her front door like a kid

Takes her time, knocking twice

And I've been in the palm of her hand since eighteen

And the sunbeams are kissing her cheeks

Oh I'm just as in love as I seem

Trace the freckles in gold on her skin

She says she's never fell for any girl before

But then her boyfriend calls, should I just go home?

Should I collect my things off the bedroom floor?

Don't know who you are anymore

And she says

'Don't tell my boyfriend I'm waking up in your bed

Don't tell him how my hands are tangled up in your hair

Don't tell him how your sheets decorate me'

I said I

Won't tell your boyfriend

That you like to play pretend

Thought I knew better but you come back and hurt me again

Don't wanna want you if you don't want me

Got the stains from your lips on my teeth

Say you're mine, but it's all bittersweet

Cos you're changing your mind every week

She said 'I never knew you felt this way before'

But now she pulls the strings and when I call her up

It's only dial tones, missed calls

And when she finally picks up

I know it's gonna hurt even more

And she says

'Don't tell my boyfriend I'm waking up in your bed

Don't tell him how my hands are tangled up in your hair

Don't tell him how your sheets decorate me'

I said I

Won't tell your boyfriend

That you like to play pretend

Thought I knew better but you come back and hurt me again

Don't wanna want you if you don't want me

She says she's never fell for any girl before

But then her boyfriend calls, should I just go home?

Should I collect my things off the bedroom floor?

Don't know who you are anymore

She said 'I never knew you felt this way before'

But now she pulls the strings & when I call her up

It's only dial tones, missed calls

And when she finally picks up

I know it's gonna hurt even more
