Girl next door


I got pillows and my sheets don't match
The blanket that she's using got at least one patch
And if you call a cab and you need some cash
The wallet's in the dresser, but don't leave too fast.

I wanna do this one more time before you go
Don't beat yourself up cause we didn't take it slow.
A one night stand doesn't mean that you're a hoe,
I never really got the feeling that you were a pro.

I'm a nice guy, I thought you knew it
But I think it's weird you're tryna make me prove it
I don't think there's a right way that we can do it
So if were gonna do it then lets just do it

You can tell me if you think we're moving too fast
I promise I won't hurt you like they didn't in your past
But if you wanna be my only one then don't ask,
You wouldn't be the first and you won't be the last.

[Chorus]
Cause all I need is one night with you
Baby I'm just tryna get right with you
Don't try to hide if you needed to
In the morning you can stay and we can sleep till noon
You say you never done this before
As you're dropping all your clothes on my bedroom floor
But I aint really lookin for the girl next door,
No I aint really lookin for the girl next door.

God damn so you're beautiful when I'm not drunk
All you're wearing is a t-shirt that I gave you cause it shrunk
Your hair looks like a nest
Your makeup is a mess
Got a feeling that you're too good for me when you look your best

And I'm wondering how this happened
Both of us were saying how we're so old fashioned
Trying to impress you
Cause I'm trying to undress you
I guess we were both talking through our cocktail glasses.

The conversation got a little too deep, whatever
For me think that all we'd do is sleep, together
I swear I wouldn't play you like that
I know a fuck a lot, why you gotta see it like that

I wasn't lookin for a good girl last night
I'm wondering how I ended up with you
I bet you thought that you were sleeping with the wrong
I guess I thought I was the wrong guy too

[Chorus]
Cause all I need is one night with you
Baby I'm just tryna get right with you
Don't try to hide if you needed to
In the morning you can stay and we can sleep till noon
You say you never done this before
As you're dropping all your clothes on my bedroom floor
But I aint really lookin for the girl next door,
No I aint really lookin for the girl next door.

[Chorus]
Cause all I need is one night with you
Baby I'm just tryna get right with you
Don't try to hide if you needed to
In the morning you can stay and we can sleep till noon
You say you never done this before
As you're dropping all your clothes on my bedroom floor
But I aint really lookin for the girl next door,
No I aint really lookin for the girl next door.

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
