[Intro]
I just want you back
Back, back
[Verse 1]
Girls in the department store, they try so hard to fix you
And they can smell a broken heart they step right up and spritz you
Anything to cover up is not enough to bring you back
Or make you want me more
What did I come here for?
[Chorus]
Nothing's gonna change me, nothing's gonna save me
Color on my lips can't take back what I said
Try to get attention, beauty intervention
Answer isn't in a perfect shade of red
Aye aye aye aye, perfect shade of red
Aye aye aye aye, perfect shade of red
[Verse 2]
I tried on the candy floss flavored gloss to kiss you
Hey, were they sweeter lies? It's no surprise I miss you
Wish I knew then what I know now
Is there somehow to bring you back?
To make you want me more?
What did I do this for
[Chorus]
Nothing's gonna change me, nothing's gonna save me
Color on my lips can't take back what I said
Try to get attention, beauty intervention
Answer isn't in a perfect shade of red
Aye aye aye aye, perfect shade of red
Aye aye aye aye, perfect shade of red
[Bridge]
I came here looking for a way I could kill some time
I came here looking for something you just can't buy
Aye aye aye, aye aye aye
Aye aye aye aye
I just want you back
Aye, nothing's gonna change
[Chorus]
Nothing's gonna change me, nothing's gonna save me
Color on my lips can't take back what I said
Try to get attention, beauty intervention
Answer isn't in a perfect shade of red
Nothing's gonna change me, nothing's gonna save me
Color on my lips can't take back what I said
Try to get attention, beauty intervention
Answer isn't in a perfect shade of red
[Outro]
Aye aye aye aye, perfect shade of red
(I really fucking miss you)
Aye aye aye aye, perfect shade of red
(I really wanna kiss you)
Aye aye aye aye, perfect shade of red
(I just want you back)
