I may know myself, but I realize that I can be led astray
I know, I know that you're bad for my health
But I don't care, I want you anyway
Ay, yeah
Boy, you think that you know me
Oh, but you can't see my lonely heart
Things look different in the mornin', oh
That's when we find out who we are
Would you still want me
Without no makeup on my face?
Without alcohol in your veins?
Oh, would you, baby?
Would you still love me
With all the promises you made?
Would you still mean the words you say?
Oh, would you, baby?
Yeah
You know everybody makes mistakes, mhmm
Don't let me be yours
You know everybody makes mistakes
Don't let me be yours, no, don't let me be
We may look like hell when it's 6 a.m.
But it's heaven in this bed
I know, I know, I know that you can tell
That we're more than friends
And it's not just in our heads
Yeah, yeah
Boy, you think that you know me
Oh, but you can't see my lonely heart
Things look different in the mornin', yeah
That's when we find out who we are
Would you still want me
Without no makeup on my face?
Without alcohol in your veins?
Oh, would you, baby?
Would you still love me
With all the promises you made?
Would you still mean the words you say?
Oh, would you, baby?
Yeah
You know everybody makes mistakes
Don't let me be yours
You know everybody makes mistakes
Don't let me be yours, no, don't let me be
Boy, you think that you know me
Oh, but you can't see my lonely heart
Things look different in the mornin', ah
That's when we find out who we are
You know everybody makes mistakes
Don't let me be yours
You know everybody makes mistakes
Don't let me be yours, no, don't let me be
You know everybody makes mistakes
Don't let me be yours
You know everybody makes mistakes
Don't let me be yours, no, don't let me be
