[Verse 1]
I used to be in love with you
You used to be the first thing on my mind
I know I'm just a friend to you
That I will never get to call you mine

[Pre-Chorus]
But I still love you, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I love you
I didn't mean to say what I said
I miss you, I mean it, I tried not to feel it
But I can't get you out of my head
And I want you to miss me when I'm not around you
I know that you’re in town
Oh, won't you come around to the spot that we met?

[Chorus]
I'm not the type of girl for you
And I'm not going to pretend
That I'm the type of girl you call more than a friend
And I'd break all the rules for you
Break my heart and start again
I'm not the type of girl you call more than a friend

[Verse 2]
I bet she acts so perfectly
You probably eat up every word she says
And if you ever think of me
I bet I'm just a flicker in your head

[Pre-Chorus]
But I still love you, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I love you
I didn’t mean to say what I said
I miss you, I mean it, I tried not to feel it
But I can't get you out of my head
And I want you to miss me, when I'm not around you
I know that you're in town
Oh, won't you come around to the spot that we met?

[Chorus]
I'm not the type of girl for you
And I'm not going to pretend
That I'm the type of girl you call more than a friend
And I'd break all the rules for you
Break my heart and start again
I'm not the type of girl you call more than a friend

[Bridge]
I'll make time for you (Time for you)
I'll make time for you (Time for you)

[Breakdown]
I love you, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I love you
I didn't mean to say what I said
I miss you, I mean it, I tried not to feel it
But I can’t get you out of my head

[Chorus]
I'm not the type of girl for you
And I'm not going to pretend
That I'm the type of girl you call more than a friend
And I'd break all the rules for you
Break my heart and start again
I'm not the type of girl you call more than a friend

[Outro]
I'll make time for you (Time for you)
I'll make time for you (Time for you)
I'll make time for you (Time for you)
I'll make time for you (Time for you)

Carly Rae Jepsen

Carly Rae Jepsen is a Canadian singer and songwriter. Born in 1985, she first came to fame by finishing in third place on the TV show Canadian Idol. Shortly afterwards, she released her debut album, Tug Of War, including the Canadian top 40 singles “Tug Of War” and “Bucket.”

Three years later, she released the single “Call Me Maybe” and planned to follow it with what would have been her second album, Curiosity. However, after the song caught the ear of fellow Canadian, Justin Bieber, he referred her to his manager, Scooter Braun, which led to her signing an international deal with Interscope Records. Before long, it became one of 2012’s most enduring hits, racking up over a billion YouTube views and topping the charts in 21 countries, including the US and Canada. The aforementioned Curiosity album was cut down to EP length, and work continued on her eventual sophomore LP, Kiss. Released in September 2012, it also featured the Owl City collaboration “Good Time”, which reached #8 on the Billboard Hot 100.

Jepsen returned in March 2015 with “I Really Like You,” the lead single from her third studio album. The song received a more muted reception than her breakout hit–although it did reach #2 in the United Kingdom–and consequently, the album, E•MO•TION, failed to make a substantial impact chartwise. Despite this, the album drew in a new wave of fans with its more experimental and mature sound; such was the amount of praise among both the public and critics that a follow-up EP of album outtakes–E•MO• Side B–was released on the album’s first anniversary.
