  • I used to be a little bit shy
    I kept my deepest feelings inside
    Speaking up to you about my emotions has always been hard
    But this just can't wait
    Tonight I feel a little bit brave
    So I won't let one more day pass without you explaining what we are

    This is gonna sound kind of silly
    But I couldn't help but notice
    The last time you kissed me
    You kept both eyes open
    Baby, can you tell me what does that mean?
    If you're looking all over your shoulder
    Then you don't need to be with me
    And I don't need to hold on

    Don't let me let me stop you
    From doing what you wanna do
    You don't wanna stick just me it's cool
    Take no chance getting over you
    No no don't let me let me stop you
    If you wanna leave baby you can leave
    Just don't pretend that you're into me
    If it ain't true no, don't let me stop you

    A lot of things I can take
    Got a high threshold for pain
    But let's get one thing straight, I'm not down to share you with anyone
    If that's not what you're looking for
    Nice knowing you, but there's the door
    'Cause I know that I can find someone who'll give me what I want

    This is gonna sound kind of silly
    If you're looking over your shoulder
    Then you don't need to be with me
    And I don't need to hold on

    Don't let me let me stop you
    From doing what you wanna do
    You don't wanna stick just me it's cool
    Take no chance getting over you
    No no don't let me let me stop you
    If you wanna leave baby you can leave
    Just don't pretend that you're into me
    If it ain't true no, don't let me stop you

    Even if I'm in the brokenhearted
    I won't lie
    I don't wanna hear goodbye
    But either way I'll be alright

    Don't let me let me stop you
    From doing what you wanna do
    You don't wanna stick just me it's cool
    Take no chance getting over you
    No no don't let me let me stop you
    If you wanna leave baby you can leave
    Just don't pretend that you're into me
    If it ain't true no, don't let me stop you

    Don't let me let me stop you
    From doing what you wanna do
    You don't wanna stick just me it's cool
    Take no chance getting over you
    No no don't let me let me stop you
    If you wanna leave baby you can leave
    Just don't pretend that you're into me
    If it ain't true no, don't let me stop you Writer/s: ANDREAS ROMDHANE, CLAUDE KELLY, JOSEF LAROSSI, MATS VALENTIN
