Teardrops On My Guitar (Pop Version) Lyrics
Taylor Swift
Lyrics
Drew looks at me
I fake a smile so he won't see
That I want and I'm needing
Everythin' that we should be
I'll bet she's beautiful
That girl he talks about
And she's got everythin'
That I have to live without
Drew talks to me
I laugh 'cause it's just so funny
But I can't even see
Anyone when he's with me
He says he's so in love
He's finally got it right
I wonder if he knows
He's all I think about at night
He's the reason for the teardrops on my guitar
The only thing that keeps me wishin' on a wishin' star
He's the song in the car I keep singin'
Don't know why I do
Drew walks by me
Can he tell that I can't breathe?
And there he goes, so perfectly
The kind of flawless I wish I could be
She better hold him tight
Give him all the love
Look in those beautiful eyes
And know she's lucky 'cause
He's the reason for the teardrops on my guitar
The only thing that keeps me wishin' on a wishin' star
He's the song in the car I keep singin'
Don't know why I do
So I drive home alone
As I turn out the light
I'll put his picture down
And maybe get some sleep tonight
'Cause he's the reason for the teardrops on my guitar
The only one who's got enough of me to break my heart
He's the song in the car I keep singin'
Don't know why I do (why I do)
He's the time taken up but there's never enough
And he's all that I need to fall into
Drew looks at me
I fake a smile so he won't see
