Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You think I'm pretty without any makeup on
You think I'm funny when I tell the punchline wrong
I know you get me, so I'll let my walls come down
Down
[Verse 2]
Before you met me I was alright
But things were kinda heavy
You brought me to life
Now every February
You'll be my Valentine
Valentine
[Verse 3]
Let's go all the way tonight
No regrets, just love
We can dance until we die
You and I, we'll be young forever
[Verse 4]
You make me
Feel like I'm living a
Teenage dream
The way you turn me on
I can't sleep
Let's run away and don't ever look back, don't ever look back
[Verse 5]
Lance, looking back is what brought me to your bed last night
If I look forward, I can only think about Juliet's future
[Verse 6]
Juliet is a big girl by now
She must be at least 14
[Verse 7]
She's in her twenties
[Verse 8]
See? There you go
[Verse 9]
And I'm supposed to stay here with you
When I don't even know what's going on in your heart?
[Verse 10]
If you want it
Take it
I should have said it before
Tried to hide it
Fake it
I can't pretend anymore
[Verse 11]
Ooh
[Verse 12]
I only wanna die alive
Never by the hands of a broken heart
[Verse 13]
I don't wanna hear you lie tonight
Now that I've become who I really are
[Verse 14]
This is the part when I say I don't want you
I'm stronger than I've been before
This is the part when I break free
'Cause I can't resist it no more
[Verse 15]
(You make me) This is
(Feel like I'm living a) The part when I
(Teenage dream) Say I don't want you
(The way you turn me on) I'm stronger than I've been before
(I can't sleep) This is
(Let's run away and don't ever look back) The part when I break free
(Don't ever look back) 'Cause I can't resist it no more
[Verse 16]
My heart stops
When you look at me
Just one touch
Now, baby, I believe
This is real
So take a chance and don't ever look back, don't ever look back
[Verse 17]
Oh baby!
This is the part when I say I don't want you
I'm stronger than I've been before
This is the part when I break free
'Cause I can't resist it no more
[Verse 18]
This is the part when I say I don't want you
I'm stronger than I've been before
This is the part when I break free
'Cause I can't resist it no more
