[Intro]
Da-da, da-da, da-da-da
Da-da, da-da, da-da
[Verse 1]
Almost made me lose my cool for a minute
Almost forgot who I am for minute
Almost forgot that you should count all your lucky stars
That you ever even had me for a minute (Woo)
[Pre-Chorus]
I mind my business and I still get burned (Still get burned)
But it's only painful if I let it hurt (Let it hurt)
Go ahead and fill up all your voids with parts of her
I won't be holding my breath
[Chorus]
You said, "I'm happy that I found you" (Happy that I found you)
But, boy, you went in for the kill (For the kill)
You said, "I've never, ever, ever met a girl like you" (Boy)
And, boy, you never will (Never will, never will)
Boy, you never will
[Post-Chorus]
Da-da, da-da, da-da-da
Da-da, da-da, da-da (Woo)
[Verse 2]
No one's gonna see you and hear you and feel you quite as well
Don't tell me you can't tell
How can you notice what a real thing is
If you don't even know yourself? Yeah
[Pre-Chorus]
Go mind your Ps and Qs, I'll mind my own (Mind my own)
But don't you come knocking when you're alone (You're alone)
'Cause I have been pushed as far as I can go
And I won't hold my breath
[Chorus]
You said, "I'm happy that I found you" (Happy that I found you)
But, boy, you went in for the kill (For the kill)
You said, "I've never, ever, ever met a girl like you" (Boy)
And, boy, you never will (Never will, never will)
Boy, you never will
[Bridge]
You won't get any of my tears, no, not this time
Lucky for you, I have been hurt enough to know I'll be fine
[Pre-Chorus]
I mind my business and I still get burned
I'm too young to care, too old to let it hurt
I am not a second choice if I'm not the first
So don't hold your breath
[Chorus]
You said, "I'm happy that I found you," yeah (Happy that I found you)
But, boy, you went in for the kill (For the kill)
You said, "I've never, ever, ever met a girl like you" (Boy)
And, boy, you never will (Never will, never will)
Said, boy, you never will (Never will, never will)
Boy, you never will (Da-da, da-da, da-da)
Da-da, da-da, da-da-da
Da-da, da-da, da-da

Boy, you never will (Da-da, da-da, da-da)
