why

Shawn Mendes

I know a girl, she s like a curse
We want each other, no one will break first
So many nights, trying to find someone new
They don t mean nothing compared to her, and I know

When people ask about us, now
we just brush it off
I don t know why we act
like it means nothing at all
I wish that I could tell you
that you re all that I want, yeah

I pretend that I m not ready
Why do we put each other through hell?
Why can t we just get over ourselves?
And you say hi like you just met me
Why do we put each other through hell?
Why can t we just get over ourselves?
Why can t we just get over ourselves?

When I hear you sing, it gets hard to breathe
Can t help but think every song s about me
And every line, every word that I write
You are the muse in the back of my mind, oh

Don t want to ask about it cause you might brush it off
I m afraid you think that it means nothing at all
I don t know why I won t admit
that you re all I want

I pretend that I m not ready
Why do we put each other through hell?
Why can t we just get over ourselves?
And you say hi like you just met me
Why do we put each other through hell?
Why can t we just get over ourselves?

I pretend that I m not ready
Why do we put each other through hell?
Why can t we just get over ourselves?
And you say hi like you just met me
Why do we put each other through hell?
Why can t we just get over ourselves?

I know a girl, she s like a curse
We want each other, no one will break first
So many nights, trying to find someone new
They don t mean nothing compared to you
