Betty

Betty, I won't make assumptions about Why you switched your homeroom I think it's 'cause of me Betty, one time I was riding on my skateboard And I passed your house It's like I couldn't breathe You heard the rumors from Inez You can't believe a word she says Most times, but this time, it was true And the worst thing that I ever did Is what I did to you But if I just showed up at your party Would you have me? Would you want me? Would you tell me to go fuck myself Or lead me to the garden? In the garden, would you trust me If I told you it was just a summer thing? I'm only 17, I don't know anything But I know I... Betty, I know where it all went wrong Your favourite song was playing From the far side of the gym I was nowhere to be found I hate the crowds, you know that Plus, I saw you dance with him You heard the rumors from Inez You can't believe a word she says Most times, but this time, it was true And the worst thing that I ever did Is what I did to you But if I just showed up at your party Would you have me? Would you want me? Would you tell me to go fuck myself Or lead me to the garden? In the garden, would you trust me If I told you it was just a summer thing? I'm only 17, I don't know anything But I know I miss you I was walking home on broken cobblestones Just thinking of you when she pulled up Like a figment of my worst intentions She said, "James, get in, let's drive" Those days turned into nights Slept next to her, but I dreamt of you all summer long Betty, I'm here on your doorstep And I planned it out for weeks now But it's finally sinking in And Betty, right now is the last time I can dream about what happens When you see my face again And the only thing I want to do Is make it up to you Yeah, I showed up at your party Yeah, I showed up at your party Well, I showed up at your party Will you have me? Will you love me? Will you kiss me on the front porch Front of all your stupid friends? And when you kiss me Will it be just like I dreamed it? Will it patch your broken wings? I'm only 17, I don't know anything But I know I... Showed up at your party Will you have me? Will you love me? Will you kiss me on the front porch In front of all your stupid friends? And when you kiss me Will it be just like I dreamed it? Will it patch your broken wings? I'm only 17, I don't know anything But I know I miss you Standing in my car again Kissing in my car again Stopped at a streetlight Yeah, you know I miss you
