Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Everyone knows that the words of a love song
Are seldom if ever true
Now it's a periscope
And I really hope it's you
[Verse 2]
It's prince of the cynics they call me
It's three hundred shades of blue
It's multiple, no, oh
But I really hope it's you
[Verse 3]
I hope it's you
I hope it's you
I hope it's you
I hope it's you
[Verse 4]
I hope it's you
I hope it's you
I hope it's you
I hope it's you
[Verse 5]
Got no reason to recommend me
I'm way over twenty-two
By a strange horoscope
But I really hope it's you
[Verse 6]
I hope it's you
I hope it's you
I hope it's you
I hope it's you
