You Won't Fool Me

Baby, I'm so confused
You got me twisted, I'm amused
But in the end I know it's true
You won't fool me, no, you won't fool me

I never planned to feel this way for you
But the way you look at me
It tears me down right through
I pretend that we’re just friends
But deep inside, the truth
Chokes me, takes me over
You got me under without even knowing

I play you on my headphones
In verses I write then erase
In every touch, every shiver, every fear
In the sound of your footsteps on my pace
You think I don’t see it
(Maybe I do,)
The way you laugh and mask that desire
If not now, then maybe never
So come slow
Whisper: I want more

I'm tired of hiding all I feel
Every time I'm forced to be too strong
If loving you is wrong
Then let me fall wrong with you
If it's meant to hurt
Let it hurt for real
Just give me a chance
Even if it's only half of your heart

I was locked up tight, you found the key
But I bleed in silence, acting like I'm numb
I love you more than I should
(It’s hard, I know)
And you don’t even know
I try to run away
But your name is all I call
So come on now
Say you don't feel the same
But you won't fool me
Oh, you won't fool me
No, no, you won't fool me

Tell me, why did you never notice?
Or did you see and just pretend you missed it?
'Cause the way we lock eyes
Creates an effect no one can resist
I know the world’s judging
But the heart never lies
And when you lean into me
Everything changes
And I love that feeling

How many times have I dreamt of your kiss
Waking with guilt mixed with desire?
But watching you with someone else
Is like a dull knife
Slowly cutting deep
It’s killing me slowly
Yet I still stand here
Believing someday we’ll find love between us
(Oh, yeah)

I was locked up tight, you found the key
(You found the key)
But I bleed in silence, acting like I'm numb
I love you more than I should
(It’s hard, I know)
And you don’t even know
I try to run away
But your name is all I call
So come on now
Say you don't feel the same (lies)
But you won't fool me
Oh, you won't fool me
No, no, you won't fool me

Baby, if I'm gonna fall, let it be by your side
If I'm gonna disappear, let it be in your embrace
I don’t want to hide any more of who I am
Because true love
Was never meant to be this way, right?

I was locked up tight, you found the key
(You found the key)
But I bleed in silence, acting like I'm numb
I love you more than I should
(It’s hard, I know)
And you don’t even know
I try to run away
But your name is all I call
So come on now
Say you don't feel the same
But you won't fool me
Oh, you won't fool me
No, no, you won't fool me
(You won't fool me, no)

But you won't fool me
Oh, you won't fool me
No, no, you won't fool me
(You won't fool me)
But your name is all I call
So come on now
Say you don't feel the same
But you won't fool me
Oh, you won't fool me
No, no, you won't fool me

I was locked up tight, you found the key
(You found the key)
But I bleed in silence, acting like I'm numb
I love you more than I should
(It’s hard, I know)
And you don’t even know
I try to run away
But your name is all I call
So come on now
Say you don't feel the same
But you won't fool me
Oh, you won't fool me
No, no, you won't fool me
(You won't fool me, no)

But you won't fool me
Oh, you won't fool me
No, no, you won't fool me
(You won't fool me)
