Mind Reader
sometimes I feel I know you better than you know yourself. Took your heart up off your sleeve and put it on the shelf. You hung it up, you said you’re done with love, you’d rather be cold hearted than deal with all this stuff. Girl I swear if you were mine I’d treat your right. Come and scoop your ass right up get out of site. Just roll the dice, for you I’d pay the price, I’d give it my all to give your life something nice.
