Nice to meet you where you been?
I could show you incredible things.
Magic, madness, heaven, sin
Saw you there and I thought
Oh my God, look at that face
You look like my next mistake
Love's a game, want to play?
No money, suit and tie
I can read you like a magazine
Ain't it funny, rumors fly
And I know you heard about me
So hey, let's be friends
I'm dying to see how this one ends
Grab your passport, and my hand
I can make the bad guys good for a weekend
Chorus:
So it's gonna be forever
Or it's gonna go down in flames
You can tell me when it's over
If the high was worth the pain
Got a long list of ex lovers
They'll tell you I'm insane
'Cause you know I love the players
And you love the game
'Cause we're young and we're reckless
We'll take this way too far
It'll leave you breathless
Or with a nasty scar
Got a long list of ex lovers
They'll tell you I'm insane
But I've got a blank space,
Baby...
And I'll write your name.
Cherry lips, crystal skies
I could show you incredible things
Stolen kisses, pretty lies
You're the king, baby,
I'm your Queen find out what you want
Be that girl for a month wait
The worst is yet to come...
Screaming, crying, perfect storms
I can make all the tables turn
Rose garden filled with thorns
Keep you second guessing like
Oh my god who is she?
I get drunk on jealousy
But you'll come back
Each time you leave
'Cause darling, I'm a nightmare dressed like a daydream
[Chorus]
Boys only want love if it's torture
Don't say I didn't, say I didn't warn you...
Boys only want love if it's torture
Don't say I didn't, say I didn't warn you...
[Chorus]
