I Will Never Be

I could talk a little louder

Put my red dress on

I could call you baby, or not

When we go out, I'll make you prouder

Leave a good impression

So your friends tell their friends who you've got

There must be something about you

Why would you need

To be corrupted by somebody like me?

But I will never be everything you need, enough for you

To leave you sleepless in the night

I heard that that's what lovers do, woo-ooh-ooh

I will never be the first thing in your mind when you wake up

Like the best drug you ever tried

Leave you restless all the time, woo-ooh-ooh

I will never be

What you are to me

In a crowded room I watch you dancing

It isn't half as bad as you think it is

And the way you move makes me a little nervous

When you see me dance, I hope you can forget

I meant to say I like it and nurse my bloody wounds in private

So you don't see we're divided differently

But I will never be that girl that you could never ask

Hung back and waited after class

Oh, she really had your heart, woo-ooh-ooh

I will never be hard work, ungrateful, or disloyal

Anything to make you smile

You just leave me in the aisle, woo-ooh-ooh

I will never be the girl you call when you get drunk

You'd watch her sleepin' just for fun

The one you think of when you come, woo-ooh

Oh, I will never be that one thing you would try to save

And if your last words are her name

Least I know I tried in vain, woo-ooh-ooh

I will never be

What you are to me
