lyrics

I know a girl, a girl like you
Who's tough but cute
And she fell in love with a man in a tailored suit.
And he fell in love with a girl who was sweet and soft.
And she, of course, fell in love with a boy who laughed her off.

My heart is heavy but open
It's fearless, it's already been broken.
I think I should chill.
You're only going to hurt me if you will.

I know a girl, a girl like you
Who's cute but tough
And she was in love with a man who thinks love is enough.
And she is in love with a man who thought love was enough.
And he is in love with a girl who likes to treat him rough.

My heart is heavy but open
It's fearless, it's already been broken.
I think I should chill.
You're only going to hurt me if you will.

My heart is heavy but open.
