flipped

perfect...your back to me
i'm kinda seeing through it i think
you're mad
i've been a bad boy
maybe mouthed off a little too much to the queen of my world
are you going to turn around yet?
pull your gaze off of the guy sitting next to you...
are you going to turn and look me in the eye?
are you going to risk that?
are you going to risk your heart doing jumping jacks as your eyes meet mine?
i thought so
about time
hey...that's not the look i was hoping for
you are tough
oh...lean close to him
he kinda looks threatoned as you fake
he's looking at me like i'm the devil
you're glancing at me like i'm the devil
i must admit
my horns must be thinly disguised
his looks are in my eyes
your looks are...nevermind
you know it
think i'll move in
that's right, look away
i'll just lean in behind you
close to your ear
very close
making sure my lips barely touch
making sure my breath barely heats up your skin
making sure i feel you sigh
kissing your neck softly as i say "better luck next time"
