Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Yes, she's wearing a t-shirt of a band that I don't know
So I pretend that I'm their number one fan, but she's talking about a song I haven't heard
Oh damn, this isn't going as planned, I grab my drink with a shaking hand
I pretend it's all going fine
But I'm really just thinking if I get another drink, will my card decline?
[Verse 2]
I don't smoke 'cause I'm broke and I'm scared
That my lungs will break and never be repaired
But tonight I'm a smoker- If that makes you move closer
I gotta win you over, but I'm so not sober
[Verse 3]
How do I make myself
One you cannot live without, someone you dream about
How do I make myself
One you cannot live without, someone you dream about
[Verse 4]
I don't know
But I have got to know soon
'Cause I am so into you
You've got that emerald shining through
[Verse 5]
And I've had brown and I've had blue
But they were different to you
'Cause you've got that emerald shining
You've got that emerald shining through
[Verse 6]
Now she's talking about a movie that she saw last month
And it just so happens to be my favourite one
So I say how did you find it? Said she didn't like it
Oh my, well hey, neither did I
I'll lie – just so I can fit that shape
Even though it just might be a big mistake
How do I make you like me? It isn't very likely, but
I'll do what it takes
[Verse 7]
See, I don't smoke 'cause I'm broke and I'm scared
That my lungs will break and never be repaired
But tonight I'm a smoker- If that makes you move closer
I gotta win you over, but I'm so totally sober
[Verse 8]
How do I make myself -
One you cannot live without, somebody that you dream about
How do I make myself -
One you cannot live without, someone you dream about
[Verse 9]
I don't know
But I have got to know soon
'Cause I am so into you
You've got that emerald shining through
[Verse 10]
And I've had brown and I've had blue
But they were different to you
You've got that emerald shining
You've got that emerald shining through
[Verse 11]
Now I'm about to go berserk
When is this plan gonna work?
I don't think I'll ever understand
I try so hard, I don't succeed
I smoke so much and I can barely breath and now
[Verse 12]
I need another plan
To make you like me
What is this other plan?
How do I make you like me?
What is this other plan?
How do I make you like me?
[Verse 13]
I don't know
But I've gotta know soon
'Cause I'm so into you
You've got that emerald shining through
[Verse 14]
I don't know
But I have got to know soon
'Cause I'm so into you
You've got that emerald shining through
[Verse 15]
And I've had brown and I've had blue
But they were nothing like you
'Cause you've got that emerald shining
You've got that emerald shining through
