lyrics

You could have anybody
Any angel on the street
But you chose me
Timothée

Ask me for head
I say, “Boy, for how long?”
So many questions so I don’t do it wrong
He says, “[I’m] doing just fine”

He reassures me there’s no need for jealousy
Have you met me? I’m insane
If anyone knew all the pleasures that grew from your body
They’d eat me alive

Could we just promise by blood that you’ll always be mine?

Boy, you are right and I am wrong
It’s what I’ve been saying all along
Just please don’t leave
Timothée

With you I will never be sure
Cause even though I’m always yours
You could never be mine

SHUT UP, SHUT UP.
YOU DON’T REALLY MEAN THAT
NOOOOOOOOO
WHY’D YOU GO AND MAKE HIM LEAVE?
WHY’D YOU GO AND MAKE HIM LEAVE?

Crying cause you cut your line
How long have you known?
This ain’t that kind of show

Baby looks so real in his films
I’m in love with a still
Swear to God that’s not what I want
But it’s all that I got
You’re all that I’ve got

You Beautiful Bastard
Must know me so well
Said all the right things
To put me through hell

How does one survive this?
No love makes no sense
But tell me the truth:
Am I too intense?

Wow.
Wait, I just wanna say
I know that you loved me
Can’t take that away
One day I won’t want you
It just takes some time
Can’t be every night
I wait here and cry
