C#
Thought I could see you around town
And not really hate it but I guess
I must've underestimated
My feelings, those curves got me my
heart rate squealing

Got me thinkin' about some happier things
If you showed up in some baggier jeans
Breaking up wouldn't matter to me
It'd be a lot less sadder to see

Chorus:
C#
If you could just be a "9" for a minute
One less than a dime for a minute
I could see you in a church dress
And it would hurt less and
I could focus on the bible verses
If you're a solid 9 for a minute
Wouldn't mind being blind for a minute
Baby, why ya gotta 10 out of 10
I could start writing song lines with you in it
If you could just be a "9" for a minute

The way you backing it up,
looking over your shoulder
Girl, you're gettin' too good
to play hard to get over
If you're tryna' make me miss that
Girl you did that, congrats

Got me thinkin' about some happier things
If you showed up in some baggier jeans
Breaking up wouldn't matter to me
It'd be a lot less sadder to see

Chorus

It's like "one, two"
I could stop thinkin' 'bout you
I said "three, four"
I could watch you leave and not say "Good Lord"
"Five, six" I could stop staring at your lips
"Seven, eight" movin' on wouldn't have to wait

Chorus
