Romeo & Juliet 2009
(You've got mail)
Tell my heart it's just pretend
I've done it before and I can do it again
Cause this has gone on like way too long
I wish you'd make a move, boy
I wish you'd move on
We met online in like 2009
Cause you bullied me at school
And I thought I'd say hi
But if I really make you feel butterflies
It shouldn't really matter if your friends think I'm a guy
But if you were right here
Would you still say you hate me?
Cause every time you held my hand
It felt like you loved me
I wish I could remember what the last thing you said to me was
Something about how you always dream about (Me)
I wish you could pretend that I don't have a body
If I could go back in time I'd change myself I'm sorry
I wish I could pretend that I don't have a body
If I could go back in time I'd myself, I'm sorry
Why can't we just play pretend
I'll see you in the afterlife
If we don't make it through the night
Why can't we just play pretend
I'll see you in the afterlife
If I don't make it through the night
Why can't we just play pretend
I'll see you in the afterlife
If we don't make it through the night
Why can't we just play pretend
I'll see you in the afterlife
Who's that staring at me from across the room?
I waited for you after class cause I didn't understand
How you mistook me for a girl, but I think you're really cool
I know I'm not your type, but do you wanna get some food?
I guess it's supposed to get easier
When it's further away
But now it's 13 years later
Still feels like yesterday
And I just wanna go back
Knowing what I know now
You could be my Romeo
And I your Juliet
But it only gets harder
When it's further away
Cause now it's 13 years later
Still feels like yesterday
And I just wanna go back
Knowing what I know now
You could be my Romeo
And I your Juliet
Who's that staring at me from across the room?
I waited for you after class cause I didn't understand
How you mistook me for a girl, but I think you're really cool
I know I'm not your type, but maybe we could try
Tell my heart it's just pretend
I've done it before and I can do it again
Cause this has gone on like way too long
I wish you'd make a move, boy
I wish you'd move on
We met online in like 2009
Cause you bullied me at school
And I thought I'd say hi
But if I really make you feel butterflies
It shouldn't really matter if your friends think I'm a guy
But if you were right here
Would you still say you hate me?
Cause every time you held my hand
It felt like you loved me
I wish I could remember what the last thing you said to me was
Something about how you always dream about (Me)
I wish you could pretend that I don't have a body
If I could go back in time I'd change myself I'm sorry
I wish I could pretend that I don't have a body
If I could go back in time I'd myself, I'm sorry
Why can't we just play pretend
I'll see you in the afterlife
If we don't make it through the night
Why can't we just play pretend
I'll see you in the afterlife
If I don't make it through the night
Why can't we just play pretend
I'll see you in the afterlife
If we don't make it through the night
Why can't we just play pretend
I'll see you in the afterlife
Who's that staring at me from across the room?
I waited for you after class cause I didn't understand
How you mistook me for a girl, but I think you're really cool

How you mistook me for a girl, but I think you're really cool
I know I'm not your type, but maybe we could try
