The One That I Want (But I Don’t Know Why)

Every time think you'll try, really try

And I try to believe but you don't, no, you don't

Starts to feel like a lie, I don't lie

But I lie to myself 'cause I don't wanna know

I'm still rootin' for you

Don't know if I'm supposed to

I'm thinkin', "Oh my God"

I'm breakin' every rule that I live by for you

So bad it's almost hot

Chalk it up to early-twenties torture

So put your lips on mine

It feels good when I close my eyes

And you can be that guy

The one that I want but I don't know why

Say we're good like we're good and it's good

'Til we're not 'cause I thought you would be a little better

But you're back from the night, you forgot to invite me

It's fine, I just didn't think I'd ever

Keep on rootin' for you

(Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah)

Don't think I'm supposed to

(Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah)

I'm thinkin', "Oh my God"

I'm breakin' every rule that I live by for you

So bad it's almost hot

Chalk it up to early-twenties torture

So put your lips on mine (put your lips on mine)

It feels good when I close my eyes

And you can be that guy

The one that I want but I don't know why

I don't know why

I really don't know why

Maybe if we met after Girlfriend 2

You wouldn't do the things that make me mad at you

And maybe if we met after Girlfriend 3

You wouldn't have to wonder how to love me

I'm thinkin', "Oh my God"

I'm breakin' every rule that I live by for you

So bad it's almost hot

Chalk it up to early-twenties torture

So put your lips on mine (put your lips on mine)

It feels good when I close my eyes

And you can be that guy

The one that I want but I don't know why
