Boys Like You Lyrics

Mama said: There'd be boys like you
Tearing my heart in two
Doing what you do best
Taking me for a ride
Telling me pretty little lies
But with you, I can't resist

Before I met you
I never felt good enough
Before I let you in
I'd already given up


Left on read, no reply
Left me just, wondering why
Now I'm skeptical of love

So when you hold my hand
Do you wanna hold my heart?
When you say you want me
Is it all of me or just one part?

So when you hold my hand
Do you wanna hold my heart?
When you say you want me

Mama said: There'd be boys like you
Tearing my heart in two
Doing what you do best
Taking me for a ride
Telling me pretty little lies
But with you, I can't resist

Maybe Mama doesn't always know best

I'm terrified, but I'll never let you know
Social suicide, if I ever let it show
Everything feels just right
I fall in place, we fall in line
I'll never let you go

So when you hold my hand
Do you wanna hold my heart?
When you say you want me
Is it all of me or just one part?
So when you hold my hand
Do you wanna hold my heart?
When you say you want me
Is it all of me?

Mama said: There'd be boys like you
Tearing my heart in two
Doing what you do best
Taking me for a ride
Telling me pretty little lies
But with you, I can't resist

Maybe Mama doesn't always know best

So when you hold me
Am I the only one?
Do you wanna know me?
Or is this all just for fun?

Mama said: There'd be boys like you
Tearing my heart in two
Doing what you do best
Taking me for a ride
Telling me pretty little lies
But with you, I can't resist no no
Maybe Mama doesn't always know best
Mama said: There'd be boys like you
Too good to be true
Doing what you do best
Taking me for a ride
Telling me pretty little lies
But for you, for you, for you I'll take that risk
