Tearing Me Up

Let me tell you about a little situation

It's been testing my patience

Man, she was keeping me up all night

'Cause you only get so far reading faces

We were off to the races

And I thought to myself "hold tight"

You see there was just one complication

She was already taken

And what was so wrong felt so right

She said "no need for looking over your shoulder

When you could just come over

And we can work this out just fine"

I don't know what you want from me

So careless in my company

Oh, if all that you say is true

There'll be no getting over you

So beat down playing by your rules

If you're a joker then I'm a fool

I guess there's no catching up to you

If you don't want my affection

Don't lie, you're tearing me up

'Cause you've got, all my attention

I won't lie, you're tearing me up

I'm trying to tell your intention

When you lie, you're tearing me up

If you don't want my affection

You won't mind, you're tearing me up

It all started with a simple conversation

It was on the weekend and she was talking me up all night

Kept asking if I was only faking

She was there for taking

Showing me that she was all mine

She told me she lived just around the corner

I wanted to know her

Yeah, she was making me lose my mind

I didn't know quite what I was chasing

She left my heart racing

And all between it was just one night

I don't know what you want from me

So careless in my company

Oh, if all that you say is true

There'll be no getting over you

So beat down playing by your rules

If you're a joker, then I'm a fool

I guess there's no catching up to you

If you don't want my affection

Don't lie, you're tearing me up

'Cause you've got, all my attention

I won't lie, you're tearing me up

I'm trying to tell your intention

When you lie, you're tearing me up

If you don't want my affection

You won't mind, you're tearing me up
