verse

I threw a wish in the well
I threw a wish in the well
Don′t ask me, I'll never tell
Don′t ask me, I'll never tell
I looked to you as it fell
I looked to you as it fell
And now you′re in my way
And now you′re in my way
I trade my soul for a wish
I trade my soul for a wish
Pennies and dimes for a kiss
Pennies and dimes for a kiss
I wasn't looking for this
I wasn't looking for this
But now you're in my way
But now you're in my way

pre-chorus

Your stare was holdin′
Your stare was holdin′
Ripped jeans, skin was showin′
Ripped jeans, skin was showin′
Hot night, wind was blowin'
Hot night, wind was blowin'
Where you think you′re goin', baby?
Where you think you′re goin', baby?

chorus

Hey, I just met you, and this is crazy
Hey, I just met you, and this is crazy
But here′s my number, so call me, maybe
But here′s my number, so call me, maybe
It's hard to look right at you, baby
It's hard to look right at you, baby
But here′s my number, so call me, maybe
But here′s my number, so call me, maybe
Hey, I just met you, and this is crazy
Hey, I just met you, and this is crazy
But here's my number, so call me, maybe
But here's my number, so call me, maybe
And all the other boys try to chase me
And all the other boys try to chase me
But here's my number, so call me, maybe
But here's my number, so call me, maybe

verse

You took your time with the call
You took your time with the call
I took no time with the fall
I took no time with the fall
You gave me nothing at all
You gave me nothing at all
But still, you′re in my way
But still, you′re in my way
I beg and borrow and steal
I beg and borrow and steal
At first sight, and it′s real
At first sight, and it′s real
I didn't know I would feel it
I didn't know I would feel it
But it′s in my way
But it′s in my way

pre-chorus

Your stare was holdin'
Your stare was holdin'
Ripped jeans, skin was showin′
Ripped jeans, skin was showin′
Hot night, wind was blowin'
Hot night, wind was blowin'
Where you think you′re goin', baby?
Where you think you′re goin', baby?

chorus

Hey, I just met you, and this is crazy
Hey, I just met you, and this is crazy
But here's my number, so call me, maybe
But here's my number, so call me, maybe
It′s hard to look right at you, baby
It′s hard to look right at you, baby
But here′s my number, so call me, maybe
But here′s my number, so call me, maybe
Hey, I just met you, and this is crazy
Hey, I just met you, and this is crazy
But here's my number, so call me, maybe
But here's my number, so call me, maybe
And all the other boys try to chase me
And all the other boys try to chase me
But here′s my number, so call me, maybe
But here′s my number, so call me, maybe

bridge

Before you came into my life, I missed you so bad
Before you came into my life, I missed you so bad
I missed you so bad, I missed you so, so bad
I missed you so bad, I missed you so, so bad
Before you came into my life, I missed you so bad
Before you came into my life, I missed you so bad
And you should know that
And you should know that
I missed you so, so bad
I missed you so, so bad
(Bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad)
(Bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad)
