You're stubborn as they come, you'll never settle down You'll always be the one who doesn't stick around You make all the rules, you're set in your ways You gotta have your freedom, you gotta have your space Cause one day you'll meet the girl you swore you'd never find Start feeling things you never felt and spending all your time Trying to figure out how she got this hold on you And when you start to fall, you'll hold onto your pride Start building up your walls and never let her get inside You'll push her away 'cause that's all you know how to do And then she'll leave and you won't beg her not to go Ask me how I know Go on and shake your head and tell me that I'm wrong Say, "I'm just another fool and this is just another song" But I know how you are 'cause I know how I am And I'd give anything to go back and try again Cause one day you'll meet the girl you swore you'd never find Start feeling things you never felt and spending all your time Trying to figure out how she got this hold on you And when you start to fall, you'll hold onto your pride Start building up your walls and never let her get inside You'll push her away 'cause that's all you know how to do And then she'll leave and you won't beg her not to go Ask me how I know And you best put this song on repeat Maybe then you won't end up like me Cause one day you'll meet the girl you swore you'd never find Start feeling things you never felt and spending all your time Trying to figure out how she got this hold on you And when you start to fall, you'll hold onto your pride Start building up your walls and never let her get inside You'll push her away 'cause that's all you know how to do And then she'll leave and you won't beg her not to go Ask me how I know Ask me how I know Cause man I know
