A boy

This one just sort of wrote itself. There's always that guy in your life who you're not supposed to like, not supposed to have a crush on...and yet, that just makes you like him even more. And before you ask, yes, there is an actual person behind this song, but I'd like to keep his identity on the DL...for now.

Damn, I don't know how you do it
You make me see right through it
Everything I should be running from
You've got me falling for
Your eyes, they see right through me
How can one person make me come so undone?

I don't know where this is going to lead
Who knows where we'll be a year from now
But it's just that every time I look at you
I want to tell you these words somehow

You hooked me with just one look
I had no idea what I was getting into
Falling for a boy like you
You're everything a girl like me isn't supposed to believe
You've got a girl like me thinking of things I shouldn't do
Finding every excuse just to be next to you
I should walk away, find someone else
But, oh, you make it so easy just to be myself
I shouldn't be falling for a boy like you
But that won't stop me from wanting to

There's a story behind those eyes
A story you try so desperately to hide
I guess you want to keep it private
But knowing me, I'll be damned if I don't try to find it

'Cause I see something in you
Something I want to hold on to

You hooked me with just one look
I had no idea what I was getting into
Falling for a boy like you
You're everything a girl like me isn't supposed to believe
You've got a girl like me thinking of things I shouldn't do
Finding every excuse just to be next to you
I should walk away, find someone else
But, oh, you make it so easy just to be myself
I shouldn't be falling for a boy like you
But that won't stop me from wanting to

You're like a drug intoxicating me
But something in me is excited to see where this will lead
You're the boy I'm not supposed to like
So stop seducing me with those dreamy eyes

You hooked me with just one look
I had no idea what I was getting into
Falling for a boy like you
You're everything a girl like me isn't supposed to believe
You've got a girl like me thinking of things I shouldn't do
Finding every excuse just to be next to you
I should walk away, find someone else
But, oh, you make it so easy just to be myself
I shouldn't be falling for a boy like you
But that won't stop me from wanting to

You hooked me with just one look
I had no idea what I was getting into
Falling for a boy like you
You're everything a girl like me isn't supposed to believe
You've got a girl like me thinking of things I shouldn't do
Finding every excuse just to be next to you
I should walk away, find someone else
But, oh, you make it so easy just to be myself
I shouldn't be falling for a boy like you
But that won't stop me from wanting to

A boy like you could have any girl he wants
But you see, there's just this girl like me
Standing here wishing they're not...
