VERSE 1:
|
|
This might sound a bit crazy.
|
But I can't help but say it.
|
I'll tell you what I saw and you tell what you think.
|
This a.m. after breakfast,
|
I was crusin' past the sidewalk exit,
|
Up, the store where you work every mornin'.
|
And this blonde-haired boy with this trumpit toy,
|
And his new shoes on,
|
And your hair was long,
|
You were flippin it left and right as you were.
|
He was sayin things you were listenin,
|
You were talkin back,
|
You thought I didn't see that,
|
But, baby everybody's always said I had eyes behind my hat.
|
|
CHORUS:
|
I held you in close up.
|
I held you in close up.
|
I didn't wanna get too excited, wasn't invited to the party
|
So I didn't come in.
|
|
VERSE 2:
|
Ah girl I held you in close up, and you lied.
|
I know I'm abrasive, but I'm not control creation.
|
I just demand what I need and I trash what's left.
|
We're tired that's alright.
|
We learn to believe in cold nights,
|
And many we seen in this outfit.
|
Cloudy skies with you, rainy eyes with you,
|
And this other jake, he's such a flake,
|
And he slimed me with every intention.
|
What a tragedy, what a sight to see,
|
Now I'm throwin dirt, because that really hurt,
|
And no,nnnnnn,nothin's gonna make me believe we could be what we were.
|
|
CHORUS
|
|
|
Ohhh, I held you in close up
|
And you lied to my face.
|
Ah baby, you been a bad, bad, girl.
|
|
I held you in close up (X7)
|
And thhissss issss whaaaa, ohhh, ohhhhh, it's what I get.
|
Oh, you've been so bad.
