Story Behind The Song
I met a pretty young girl "an actress" and dated her for a little while to realize, she was too insecure and arrogant at the same time to treat a guy with maturity. After spending quality time with her, seeming to develop a closeness, the games continued
Song Description
The aftermath of a girl who appears to be very pretty, sweet, and upbeat turns out to be a maneater, playing games, and teasing the guy who goes of his way for her as she casts him aside while reeling him back in. There are red flags to look for, so don'

Lyrics
* PLEASE NOTE LYRICS HAVE BEEN ADDED TO THE LAST CHORUS (NOT ON THIS RECORDING)
"I DON?T WANT IT"
IT?S BEEN TOUGH AT NIGHT CAUSE I KEEP THINKIN ABOUT HER
SHE?S BEEN PLAYING GAMES WITH ME AND I FALL EVEN HARDER
BUT I STILL WANNA MAKE IT RIGHT, PROBABLY END UP LOSING THIS FIGHT
CAUSE SHE DON?T WANT TO BE SERIOUS AND I DON?T WANT TO BE THE ONE TO FUSS
CHORUS: CAUSE I DON?T WANT IT AND I DON?T NEED IT
BABY I WAS BLIND, BUT NOW I SEE IT
YOU?RE GONNA BE THE ONE WHO NEEDS
A LITTLE BIT OF LOVE JUST LIKE ME
I DON?T WANT AND I DON?T NEED IT
LET ME THINK JUST FOR A MINUTE
YOU WERE NEVER THERE FOR ME
I KNOW THAT YOU?RE ONE BIG TEASE
IT?S TOUGH WHEN YOU SEE ME WALK IN
CAUSE YOU TRY TO HIDE FROM ME
LOOKS LIKE THERE?LL BE NO MORE TALKIN
CAUSE I SCARED YOU BABY
WELL PARDON ME FOR LIKING YOU
TELL ME WHAT WAS I SUPPOSED TO DO
THANKS FOR THE SMILE THAT YOU SENT
BUT NO KISS, NO EXPECTATIONS MY FRIEND
CHORUS: CAUSE I DON?T WANT IT AND I DON?T NEED IT
BABY I WAS BLIND, BUT NOW I SEE IT
YOU?RE GONNA BE THE ONE WHO NEEDS
A LITTLE BIT OF LOVE JUST LIKE ME
I DON?T WANT AND I DON?T NEED IT
LET ME THINK JUST FOR A MINUTE
YOU WERE NEVER THERE FOR ME
I KNOW THAT YOU?RE ONE BIG TEASE
BRIDGE:
YOU SAY TO ME, YOU MUST BE FALLING FOR ME NOW
IF I DID THE SAME TO YOU, YOU WOULD KNOW JUST HOW
IT FEELS TO BE LONELY, YOU DON?T KNOW WHAT YOU DO TO ME, TO ME, TO ME, TO ME
I DON?T NEED YOU
CHORUS 2X: I DON?T WANT IT AND I DON?T NEED IT
BABY I WAS BLIND, BUT NOW I SEE IT
YOU?RE GONNA BE THE ONE WHO NEEDS
A LITTLE BIT OF LOVE JUST LIKE ME
I DON?T WANT AND I DON?T NEED IT
LET ME THINK JUST FOR A MINUTE
YOU WERE NEVER THERE FOR ME
I KNOW THAT YOU?RE ONE BIG TEASE
