Lyrics

[Intro]
Betty, I really hope you're on my side
I really hope you get it
Betty, I really hope you're on my side
I really hope you get it
[Verse 1]
I tried to get my shit together
Now you want a break
'Cause I'm not ready for forever
I wonder if you hate me
I bet I hate me more
Oh, trust me, I'd give anything
To tell you that I'm sure
[PreChorus]
I don't wanna lose you
I'm just thinking out loud
[Chorus]
So could you call me back, hello, hello?
I'm tryna work this out
I know your friends say
"When you know, you know"
I just don't know right now
So could you call me back, hello, hello?
I'm tryna work this out
I know your friends say
"When you know, you know"
I just don't know right now
Betty, I really hope you're on my side
I really hope you get it
[Verse 2]
Next time you see your folks at dinner
Just ask your Mom to please
Stop pointing at your finger
I know she calls me "son" now
Your dad, he calls me "kid"
I'm sorry, I'm not man enough
To face 'em both like this
[PreChorus]
Don't read my last two messages
I barely slept an hour
[Chorus]
So could you call me back, hello, hello?
I'm tryna work this out
I know your friends say
"When you know, you know"
I just don't know right now
Or could you give me just a year or so
To straighten out my head?
I know your friends say
"When you know you know"
So maybe, maybe, I'll know then
Betty, I really hope you're on my side
I really hope you get it
Betty, I truly hope you're on my side
I really hope you get it
[Outro]
I don't know
I don't know
Betty, I really hope you're on my side
I really hope you get it
Betty, I really hope you're on my side
I really hope you get it
Betty, I really hope you get it right
I just don't know right now
Betty, I really hope you get it right
I just don't know right now
Betty, I really hope you get it right
