Taken - acoustic
Pulled up a quarter 'til eleven
Waited a minute 'til you went in
We talked, and then we stopped talkin'
Put on a song and we listened
You know that I make you nervous
I did it half on purpose
You know that I think you're precious
You think you're a good person
So why do I
Wanna blow up your life?
I'll be a very good girl
I won't even think about it
You know you'd said I can't help it
I know you said you have a girlfriend
I just want it if it's taken
Dad left when I was 11
Mom said it was 'cause he couldn't
Keep from touchin' other women
Some things have a way of stickin'
And now I'm standin' in your kitchen
You said you told her you were leavin'
And I can't help thinkin'
I hate you because you're just slackin'
So why do I
Have to blow up your life?
I'll be a very good girl
I won't even think about it
I'm just feelin' like I can't help it
I know you said you have a girlfriend
I just want it
I just thought that if I could take it from her
Maybe then it would prove that I'm worth something
Now I'm alone and I'm hurt
Wishin' I'd taken you at your word
When you said that you were taken
I'll be a very good girl
I won't even think about it
I'm just feelin' like I can't help it
I know you said you have a girlfriend
I just want it if it's taken
I know you said you have a girlfriend
I just want it if it's taken
(Finally)
