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 over your shoulder
Then you don't need to be with me
And I don't need
(To hold on) don't let me stop you
From doing what you wanna do
You don't wanna stick, trust me, it's cool
Take no chance, get over you
No, no, don't 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 stop you
From doing what you wanna do
You don't wanna stick, trust me, it's cool
Take no chance, get over you
No, no, don't 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 end up broken-hearted
I won't lie
I don't wanna hear good-bye
But either way, I'll be
(Alright) don't let me stop you
From doing what you wanna do
You don't wanna stick, trust me, it's cool
Take no chance, get over you
No, no, don't 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 stop you
From doing what you wanna do
You don't wanna stick, trust me, it's cool
Take no chance, get over you (I'm over you)
No, no, don't let me stop you
If you wanna leave, baby (don't let me stop you) you can leave
Just don't pretend that you're into me
(Don't let me) If it ain't true (don't let me), no
Don't let me stop you
