lyrics

Hey baby I’m
Writing this in my bed
I’m sorry for
The words that I don’t understand
I don’t really love you
And you don’t really love me back
But I’ve liked you more than anyone
And I am all right with that

Remember last summer
Staying out all night long
Lying to your parents
I’m wishing you would come back home
‘Cus now you’re gone
And usually I’m fine with that
But lately there’s something missing and
I really want to get you back.

So this is not your song
I only write for girls I don’t like
This is not your song
I think about you every night
Let’s go to the city
Just to lay together in the grass
Kissing out by the campfire
Reminisce about the past

They say we’re the strangest couple
And that is all right by me
I still talk about you
I only wish that you could see
That I don’t take you lightly
And while you sometimes make me mad,
You’re still always winning
And the best that I’ve ever had

So this is not your song
I only write for girls I don’t like
This is not your song
I think about you every night
Let’s go to the city
Just to lay together in the grass
Kissing out by the campfire
Reminisce about the past

But then one day
When I think you found another guy
I’ll turn to you
Knowing that you’d never lie
And once again
I’ve made another big mistake
I hope that you’re still with me
Living with the give and take


I only write for girls I don’t like
This is not your song
I think about you every night
Let’s go to the city
Just to lay together in the grass
Kissing out by the campfire
Reminiscin’ ‘bout the past
This is not your song
I only write for girls I don’t like
This is not your song

Let’s go to the city
Just to lay together in the grass
Kissing by the campfire
Hoping for that second chance

Hey baby I
Know you want to go to bed
I’m sorry for
The words that I can’t comprehend
I just may love you
The time for that still hasn’t past
And I’ve liked you more than anyone
Whatever happens, happens
