Song Lyrics

You're out with your friends
And it's feeling like old times
Standing in line at the front of the club
You're driving around town, blasting your mixes
Singing along to the words you don't know

[Chorus]
But it makes no difference
What I do or think or say
There's no way to convince you girls
That just ain't how you play

You set me up with your girlfriends
But none of them worked out for me
I'm starting to realize lately
I should have been after you (x2)

I can tell by your shaking hands
That you want me
So baby, don't hold back
Go with the flow

I know it looks bad
Because I kissed all your girlfriends
But that's what you get
When you live in a small world

It's hard to look at me
When you know where my lips have been
Forgetting makes things easier
Forgive me and let me in

You set me up with your girlfriends
But none of them worked out for me
I'm starting to realize lately
I should have been after you (x2)

You're gonna have to choose
Is it me or them?
That's the way it goes
Leave it all behind
All the baggage and dreams

I've liked you from the start
I'll admit it now
Girl, I've gotta have you
We don't have to tell anyone
About our little secret

I know you feel it too
Because you're the only one who understands
You're wasting all your time with someone else
You need another man
I could have been after you

[Chorus]
But it makes no difference
What I do or think or say
There's no way to convince you girls
That just ain't how you play

You set me up with your girlfriends
But none of them worked out for me
I'm starting to realize lately

I should have been after you

But after last night we're through
Run along with your new boy
Go be a sex toy
I could've been after you
