i don't really wanna get to know you
i don't really wanna be your friend
i could listen to your sad, sad story
but i probably wouldn't like you by the end
i just wanna lie with someone i don't really know and go to sleep
pretty babe, if i asked you to come out with me tonight
pretty babe, would you meet me there?
pretty babe, i would lift you to heights like you've never seen
then i would let you down
i don't wanna waste another minute
trying to figure out where i went wrong
with that little spitfire girl who left me
with nothing but a need to write a song
i just wanna lie to someone i don't really know and go to sleep
pretty babe, if i asked you to come out with me tonight
pretty babe, would you meet me there?
pretty babe, i would lift you to heights like you've never seen
then i would let you down
like a raindrop in a hurricane
like a stone thrown in the sea
like my whole world when she walked away
i'll let you down
pretty babe, if i asked you to come out with me tonight
pretty babe, would you meet me there?
pretty babe, if i asked you to come home with me tonight
pretty babe, would you follow me there?
pretty babe, i would lift you to heights like you've never seen
then i would let you down
