I’m making you crazy, telling you baby I’m not meant for this

I left the last kiss on your lips, baby
It didn't feel perfect
And I know that sometimes you're hurtin' and I'm the source
Sometimes I might let you down
It's only 'cause I'm not sure if I'm supposed to stick around
Or, baby, if I should go, yeah

Baby, I just want you to know
That I still want you for sure
But sometimes I get in my head
Baby, you know I'm not perfect, but

Chorus

Kiss me, do you really miss me?
No, really, been a bit crazy
Don't you run away, oh, no
Don't you run away, oh, no
Kiss me, do you really miss me?
No, really, been a bit crazy
Don't you run away, oh, no
Don't you run away, oh, no

Baby, I just want you to know
That I still want you for sure
But sometimes I get in my head
Baby, you know I'm not perfect, but

Chorus:
I could do better than this (Yeah)
And, baby, that makes me sick
I'm lookin' at you right now
Wonderin' if you're down, but I'm not sure of it
'Cause you could do better than this (Yeah)
And, baby, that makes me sick
I'm makin' you crazy, tellin' you
Maybe I'm not meant for this, oh, yeah

Kiss me, do you really miss me? (Oh)
No, really, been a bit crazy (Oh)
Don't you run away, oh, no (Oh)
Don't you run away, oh, no
Kiss me, do you really miss me?
No, really, been a bit crazy
Don't you run away, oh, no (Don't you ever)
Don't you run away, oh, no (Don't you ever)
