Lyrics in English:
I know a girl, she’s like a curseWe want each other, no one will break firstSo many nights, trying to find someone newThey don’t mean nothing compared to her, and I know
When people ask about us, now, we just brush it offI don’t know why we act like it means nothing at allI wish that I could tell you that you’re all that I want, yeah
I pretend that I’m not readyWhy do we put each other through hell?Why can’t we just get over ourselves?And you say, hi, like you just met meWhy do we put each other through hell?Why can’t we just get over ourselves?Why can’t we just get over ourselves?
When I hear you sing, it gets hard to breatheCan’t help but think every song’s about meAnd every line, every word that I writeYou are the muse in the back of my mind, oh
Don’t want to ask about it ’cause you might brush it offI’m afraid you think that it means nothing at allI don’t know why I won’t admit that you’re all I want
I pretend that I’m not readyWhy do we put each other through hell?Why can’t we just get over ourselves?And you say, hi, like you just met meWhy do we put each other through hell?Why can’t we just get over ourselves?
I pretend that I’m not readyWhy do we put each other through hell?Why can’t we just get over ourselves?And you say, hi, like you just met meWhy do we put each other through hell?Why can’t we just get over ourselves?
I know a girl, she’s like a curseWe want each other, no one will break firstSo many nights, trying to find someone newThey don’t mean nothing compared to you
