Cutback
Rewind
Gotta play the replay in my mind
It's a little fuzzy but I think I can make it out
Look it's me standing there with my diary
Hiding the evidence that I wrote down in period 3
Could this be the moment that I have been dreaming about
But then she's there too in pink and blue
I guess all the stars align for you
And I'll take all my heart break and swallow it down
They can never find out
All my life I've been hiding myself
Just waiting for a boy like you
Running home from the bus stop
Crying over stupid words from boys like you
Not answering the questions in math
'Cos I answer them before boys like you
Promise myself when I'm older and brave
I will never love a boy like you
I'll never love again
That's what I said
When I ran home and told my mum in 1997
I still remember the look on her face
She said boys like that should be in 2nd place
I know it hurts right now
One day you'll realise
There's no need to hid yourself from the world
All my life I've been hiding myself
Just waiting for a boy like you
Running home from the bus stop
Crying over stupid words from boys like you
(There's no need to hide)
Not answering the questions in math
'Cos I answer them before boys like you
(There's no need to hide)
Promise myself when I'm older and brave
I will never love a boy like you
(There's no need to hide)
All my life I've been hiding myself
Just waiting for a boy like you
(There's no need to hide)
Running home from the bus stop
Crying over stupid words from boys like you
(There's no need to hide)
Not answering the questions in math
'Cos I answer them before boys like you
(There's no need to hide)
Promise myself when I'm older and brave
I will never love a boy like you
(There's no need to hide)
All my life I've been hiding myself
Just waiting for a boy like you
Running home from the bus stop
Crying over stupid words from boys like you
Not answering the questions in math
'Cos I answer them before boys like you
Promise myself when I'm older and brave
I will never love a boy like you
