## Lyrics

[Verse 1]

How many bottles did we have?

But it's more than [?] was when we [danced together?]

To songs up there

How did that [?] coax you to let go of my hand?

[Pre-Chorus]

Saying, "[Only/Hold me/We both need?] something like this

What's cooler than the [bandit's?] [?]

Of all, all you seem to be?"

[Chorus]

If you got tired of the twisted love you should be chasing

I can be the one you feel

If you're in love, enough to chase it

Don't overthink it

[Watch it?] how it's never seen

And she said

"Ooh-ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh-ooh

I just need something real"

If you got tired of the twisted emotional vacation

I can be the one you feel

Yeah

[Verse 2]

Shotgun lovers, bound to others

A little bit of something pulled me under the covers

I was waiting for love in the past year

But it was never strong enough to have me

[Pre-Chorus]

Saying, "[Only/Hold me/We both need?] something like this

What's cooler than the [bandit's?] [?]

Of all, all you seem to be?"

[Chorus]

If you got tired of the twisted emotional vacation

I can be the one you feel

If you're in love, enough to chase it

Don't overthink it

[Watch it?] how it's never seen

And she said

"Ooh-ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh-ooh

I just need something real"

If you got tired of the twisted love you should be chasing

I can be the one you feel

[Post-Chorus]

Ooh-ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh-ooh

I can be the one you feel

Ooh-ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh-ooh

I can be the one you feel

[Chorus]

If you got tired of the twisted love you should be chasing

I can be the one you feel

If you're in love, enough to chase it

Don't overthink it

[Watch it?] how it's never seen

And she said

"Ooh-ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh-ooh

I just need something real"

If you got tired of the twisted emotional vacation

I can be the one you feel

[Post-Chorus]

Ooh-ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh-ooh

I can be the one you feel, yeah

Ooh-ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh-ooh

I can be the one you feel
