[English]

I never saw it comin', I was havin' fun alone

Took a couple shots, now I got your number in my phone

I wanna give you all of my time

Even though I know I'm not yours and you're not mine

I never saw it comin', I was havin' fun alone

I kinda wish you'd talk to me more than you do

I know you're out tonight but I don't know with who

I'm sorry I get jealous or if I ever act selfish

But it's only 'cause I've got a hard time sharing you

I never saw it comin', I never really get this way

Pretty good with words, with you I don't know what to say

I wanna tell you all my secrets

But I don't even know if you're willin' to keep 'em

I never saw it comin', I never really get this way

I kinda wish you'd talk to me more than you do

I know you're out tonight but I don't know with who

I'm sorry I get jealous or if I ever act selfish

But it's only 'cause I've got a hard time sharing you

Tell me what you wanna know, I'll probably want it, too

Tell me where you wanna go and I'll go there with you

Take my hand, I swear to God there's nothin' we can't do

Tell me what you're scared of, I'll bet I'm scared of it, too

I kinda wish you'd talk to me more than you do

I know you're out tonight but I don't know with who

I'm sorry I get jealous or if I ever act selfish

But it's only 'cause I've got a hard time sharing you
