You know I'd adore you, I was crazier for you Then I was at 13, lost in a gym scene Waving at theatre plays, marching band playing I'm lost in the lights American glory faded before me Now I'm feeling hopeless, ripped up my nice dress Running through rose thorns, I saw the scoreboard And ran for my life (ah) No cameras catch my beatup smile I counted days, I counted miles To see you there, to see you there It was a long time coming, but It's you and me, that was my world They whisper in the hallway, "She's a good, good girl" (okay) The whole school is rolling fake dice You play dumb old games, you win dumb old prizes It's you and me, there's nothing like this Miss Africana and The Heartbreak Prince (okay) We're so mad, we paint the town red Now I'm crying alone in my bed My heart is losing, battered and bruising I see the high fives between the you guys Leave with my head hung, you were the only one Who seemed to care American stories burning before me I'm feeling hopeless, the damsels are upset Boys will be boys then, where are the wise men? Darling, I'm scared (ah) No cameras catch my hated cries I counted days, I counted miles To see you there, to see you there And now the storm is coming, but It's you and me, that was my world They whisper in the hallway, "She's a good, good girl" (okay) The whole school is rolling fake dice You play dumb old games, you win dumb old prizes It's you and me, there's nothing like this Miss Africana and The Heartbreak Prince (okay) We're so mad, we paint the town red Babe I'm crying alone in my bed It's you and me, that was my world They whisper in the hallway, "She's a good, good girl" Oh, I just thought you should know (you should know) It's you and me, there's nothing like this (like this) Miss Africana and The Heartbreak Prince (okay) We're so mad, we paint the town red (paint it red) Babe I'm crying alone in my bed It's you and me, that was my world They whisper in the hallway, "She's a good, good girl" She's a good, good girl
only first half of song is recorded rn yes I changed from Americana to Africana due to the fact that's I'm African American and it felt more relatable to me but no hate on that part plz.
