Lyrics
I wanna call you up
Tell you how I feel
But I might scare you away if
I get too real
So I won't text back
For a couple of hours
What I really wanna do is
Bring you flowers

I'm not gonna hold your hand
Ask if you wanna dance
I can not take you home, you know

I just wanna give you everything
Show you I'm a Southern gentleman
All I wanna do is let you in
But good guys, good guys never win
I just wanna be the one you call
Anything you need, anything at all
All I wanna do is let you in
But good guys, good guys never win

When you stay out late
And I don't hear back
I always wonder where you've been but
I don't ask
You're the one I want
I don't wanna share
But when you talk about someone else
I act like I don't care

I'm not gonna hold your hand
Ask if you wanna dance
I can not take you home, you know

I just wanna give you everything
Show you I'm a Southern gentleman
All I wanna do is let you in
But good guys, good guys never win
I just wanna be the one you call
Anything you need, anything at all
All I wanna do is let you in
But good guys, good guys never win

So I'm gonna play it cool
'Til I know you want me too
So I'm gonna play it cool
'Til I know you want me to

I just wanna give you everything
Show you I'm a Southern gentleman
All I wanna do is let you in
But good guys, good guys never win
I just wanna be the one you call
Anything you need, anything at all
All I wanna do is let you in
But good guys, good guys never win

So I'm gonna play it cool
'Til I know you want me too

So I'm gonna play it cool
'Til I know you want me too
So I'm gonna play it cool
'Til I know you want me too
