Kissing Boys
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I try to stay away from kissing boys I like
It’s dangerous for me to think there might
Be a chance, at something more
Or I’ll lose my mind
So I need to keep ‘em at a distance
Call them friend, to anyone who’ll listen
There’s no sense in expecting
Oh it only wrecks me in the end
That’s a kind of hurt don’t want to feel again
But looking in your eyes is magnetizing
So when you started leaning in I thought
Oh I’m in trouble now
Cuz likely this won’t last past tonight
And that’s why I don’t go kissing boys I
Fight the urge to run into your arms
It’s why I make so many jokes
That’s my defense, but it’s breaking
Oh you got me shaking I’m so scared
That’s a kind of hurt don’t want to feel again
But looking in your eyes is mesmerizing
So when you whispered, “stay” I said
Oh I’m in trouble now
Cuz I’m too entangled to take flight
And that’s why I don’t go kissing boys I like
Oooh oooh
That’s a kind of hurt don’t want to feel again
But looking in your eyes I think I’m falling
Lying next to you like this
I know I’m in trouble now
Cuz I never wanna leave your side
And that’s why I don’t go kissing boys I like, oh I
Don’t go kissing boys I like
