[Verse 1] Wait, do you see my heart on my sleeve? It's been there for days on end And it's been waitin' for you to open up yours, too Baby, come on now, I'm trying to tell you just how I'd like to hear the words roll out of your mouth finally Say that it's always been me [Chorus] That's made you feel a way you've never felt before And I'm all you need and that you never want more Then you'd say all of the right things without a clue But you'd save the best for last like I'm the one for you [Post-Chorus] You should know that you're just a temporary fix This is not rooted with you, it don't mean that much to me You're just a filler in the space that happened to be free How dare you think you'd get away with tryin' to play me, yeah? [Verse 2] Why is it every time I think I've tried my hardest It turns out it ain't enough? You're still not mentioning love What am I supposed to do to make you want me properly? I'm takin' these chances and getting nowhere And though I'm trying my hardest, you go back to her And I think that I know things may never change I'm still hopin' one day I might hear you say [Chorus] I make you feel a way you've never felt before And I'm all you need and that you never want more Then you'd say all of the right things without a clue But you'd save the best for last like I'm the one for you [Post-Chorus] You should know that you're just a temporary fix This is not rooted with you, it don't mean that much to me You're just a filler in the space that happened to be free How dare you think you'd get away with tryin' to play me, yeah? [Bridge] But, despite the truth that I know I find it hard to let go and give up on you Seems I love the things you do Like the meaner you treat me, more eager I am To persist with this heartbreak of runnin' around And I will do until I'm findin' myself with you [Chorus] And make you feel a way you've never felt before And be all you need so that you never want more Then you'd say all of the right things without a clue And you'll be the one for me and me, the one for you Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
