White Lie

Saw you in the bar, and we got to talking
I was seventeen when you asked to walk me home
So I wouldn't be alone
I've been getting used to living out the quiet life
Never been a fan of big crowds or bad guys oh
But you put on a good show

And all my friends told me you were a wild card
I don't play it safe I fall for the rockstars
I took a chance
Asked you if you want to dance

And oh my old man is in a rock band
Told me I could be anything I wanted to be
Anything that I could dream of
I close my eyes and I can see it right there
Everything I wanted, baby don't be scared to try
I said I don't fall fast, baby that's a white lie

Ripped jeans on and your old school Martens
Head thrown back, heard you when you were laughing oh
Tell me where you want to go
I know this town and leaving was my game plan
I forget where we are when you're holding my hand
Like that (like that)
Maybe sticking around wouldn't be so bad

And all my friends told me you were a wild card
I don't play it safe I fall for the rockstars
I took a chance
Asked you if you want to dance

And oh my old man is in a rock band
Told me I could be anything I wanted to be (oh-ooh-oh)
Anything that I could dream of (oh-ooh-oh)
I close my eyes and I can see it right there
Everything I wanted, baby don't be scared to try (oh-ooh-oh)
I said I don't fall fast, baby that's a white lie

And oh my old man is in a rock band
Told me I could be anything I wanted to be (oh-oh)
Anything that I could dream of (oh-oh)
I close my eyes, I can see it right there
Everything I wanted, baby don't be scared to try (oh-oh)
I said I don't fall fast, baby that's a white lie
