Lyrics
Verse 1
He's a flawless man , to my friends ,
but he's need some self control ,
please don't tell me , that he's the one for me , just let him walk right past my door ,
Verse 2
Lets be clear here , ,my friend ,
I'm not a girl who's easily swayed
But when i see that boy , I almost change my ways yeah , but I let him walk right past my door ,
Pre Chorus
Cause what he is now , is not what he seems yeah, It can't end well
Cause what he see's now , is not what i want to be , but when he smiles , my minds just thinking
Chrous
Ooh
Set me on fire ,
with your heart and your hands and all that jazz and ,
Ooh
I know you're a liar ,
I just can't be the next installment of your grapevine stories
Verse 3
He saw me walking , down that street ,
He could've stopped me there and then , but he waited , cause he just like the chase , He thinks that i don't know this game
Pre Chorus
Cause what he is now , is not what he seems yeah , It can't end well
Cause what he see's now , is not what i want to be , but when he smiles , my minds just thinking
Chorus
Bridge
Lets be serious , for a minute now , do you think that i'm one for you , You've been in this place before ,
So let me go , just let me go ,
