Reading me like a magazine

I don't wanna be made a paper dreams

You always get me out of my head again

Swear I'm just a mess in a pretty dress

But you come and steady all my spinnin' out

I'm just fine

Kissing in your backseat

Call you mine

Listening to you sleep

Think I might need you more than I thought

If I'm gonna be bending ove backwards for anyone

It's you

Been the same thought I'd never change

But you played your way through all my games

Now I'm wrapped up in you and your denim jacket

Let me have it

You took on all of my sad and made it all feel new

I'm just fine

Kissing in your backseat

Call you mine

Listening to you sleep

Think I might need you more than I thought

If I'm gonna be handing over my hurt

If I'm gonna be bending over backwars for anyone

It's you

If I'm honest you're my favorite part of me

My favorite part of me

I'm just fine

Kissing in you backseat

Call you mine

Listening to you sleep

Think I might need you more than I thought

I'm just fine

Kissing in you backseat

Call you mine

Listening to you sleep

Think I might need you more than I thought

If I'm gonna be handing over my hurt

If I'm gonna be bending over backwards

If I'm gonna be bending over backwards for anyone

It's you

I'd twist and turn to be just what you need

Even thought I know you'd never ask me to

I'd bend over backwards for you
