Tearing Me Up - Edit

Let me tell you about a little situation
It's been testing my patience, man, she was keeping me up all night
'Cause you only get so far reading faces
We were off to the races and I thought to myself, "Hold tight"

You see there was just this one complication
She was already taken and what was so wrong felt so right
She said, "No need for looking over your shoulder
When you could just come over and we can work this out just fine"

I don't know what you want from me
So careless in my company
Oh, if all that you say is true
There'll be no getting over you
Slow me down, playing by your rules
If you're a joker then I'm a fool
I guess there's no catching up to you

If you don't want my affection
Don't lie, you're tearing me up
'Cause you've got all my attention
I won't lie, you're tearing me up

And I'm trying to tell your intention
When you lie, you're tearing me up
If you don't want my affection
You won't mind tearing me up

It all started with a simple conversation
It was on the making and she was talking me up all night
Kept asking if I was only faking
She was there for taking, showing me that she was all mine

She told me she lived just around the corner
I wanted to know her, yeah, she was making me lose my mind
I didn't know quite what I was chasing
She had my heart racing and all it took was just one night

I don't know what you want from me
So careless in my company
Oh, if all that you say is true
There'll be no getting over you
Slow me down, playing by your rules
If you're a joker then I'm a fool
I guess there's no catching up to you

If you don't want my affection
Don't lie, you're tearing me up
'Cause you got all my attention
I won't lie, you're tearing me up

And I'm trying to tell your intention
When you lie, you're tearing me up
If you don't want my affection
You won't mind tearing me up
