Too Good To Be You
It's like you're straight out of a movie
I swear you jumped out of the TV
'Cause boys can only be that perfect
When it's in fiction
You checked all of the boxes
Thought you had what I wanted
But everything I loved about you
Was an invention
You almost had me convinced
Your vices just don't exist
But I know better now
Yeah I figured you out
You talk but don't follow through
Your promises just won't do
Yeah it's too good to be you
The version of you I knew
Just isn't close to the truth
Yeah it's too good to be you
Said you'd fly me round the whole globe
To Tokyo and then Rome
And yeah that's fun to think about
But you won't even take me out
If I put money on what you said
Yeah I would lose every bet
Maybe one day you'll change
But I just can't wait
You talk but don't follow through
Your promises just won't do
Yeah it's too good to be you
The version of ya I knew
Just isn't close to the truth
Yeah it's too good to be you
You
You, you
Yeah it's too good to be
I'm too busy for hypotheticals
Can't stand by when I have other goals
And it's too good, way too good
To throw it away for
Throw it away for
(You) You talk but don't follow through
Your promises just won't do
Yeah it's too good to be you
The version of ya I knew
Just isn't close to the truth
Yeah it's too good to be you
You
You, you
Yeah it's too good to be you
I swear you jumped out of the TV
'Cause boys can only be that perfect
When it's in fiction
You checked all of the boxes
Thought you had what I wanted
But everything I loved about you
Was an invention
You almost had me convinced
Your vices just don't exist
But I know better now
Yeah I figured you out
You talk but don't follow through
Your promises just won't do
Yeah it's too good to be you
The version of you I knew
Just isn't close to the truth
Yeah it's too good to be you
Said you'd fly me round the whole globe
To Tokyo and then Rome
And yeah that's fun to think about
But you won't even take me out
If I put money on what you said
Yeah I would lose every bet
Maybe one day you'll change
But I just can't wait
You talk but don't follow through
Your promises just won't do
Yeah it's too good to be you
The version of ya I knew
Just isn't close to the truth
Yeah it's too good to be you
You
You, you
Yeah it's too good to be
I'm too busy for hypotheticals
Can't stand by when I have other goals
And it's too good, way too good
To throw it away for
Throw it away for
(You) You talk but don't follow through
Your promises just won't do
Yeah it's too good to be you
The version of ya I knew
Just isn't close to the truth
Yeah it's too good to be you
You
You, you
Yeah it's too good to be you
