Intimacy

Honesty

commitment

You

Me

Us

If I were a boy

Even just for a day

I'd roll outta bed in the morning

And throw on what I wanted then go

Drink beer with the guys

And chase after girls

I'd kick it with who I wanted

And I'd never get confronted for it.

Cause they'd stick up for me.

If I were a boy

I think I could understand

How it feels to love a girl

I swear I’d be a better man.

I'd listen to her

Cause I know how it hurts

When you lose the one you wanted

Cause he's taken you for granted

And everything you had got desroyed.

If I were a boy

I would turn off my phone

Tell everyone its broken

So they'd think that I was sleepin alone

I'd put myself first

And make the rules as I go

Cause I know that she’d be faithful

Waitin for me to come home

To come home

If I were a boy

I think I could understand

How it feels to love a girl

I swear I'd be a better man.

I'd listen to her

Cause I know how it hurts

When you lose the one you wanted

Cause he's taken you for granted

And everything you had got desroyed.

It's a little too late for you to come back

Say its just a mistake

Think I'd forgive you like that

If you thought I would wait for you

You thought wrong

You know when you act like that,

I don't think you realize how it makes me look

or feel

Act like what? Why are you so jealous? It's not like I'm sleeping with the guy.

What?

What?

I said why are so so jealous, it's not like I'm sleeping with the girl.

But you're just a boy

You don't understand

Yeah you don't understand Oooh

How it feels to love a girl someday

You wish you were a better man

You don't listen to her

You don't care how it hurts

Until you lose the one you wanted

Cause you've taken her for granted

And everything you have got destroyed.

But you're just a boy
