I know you too well and I can tell
When something hurts you
There's no need to say
The giveaways in the things you do
You don't want my kiss
You just insist I keep my distance
But, girl, to push and shove
Won't hold back love when it's persistent
I gotta tell you
That the good guy's supposed to get the girls
And you're supposed to fall in love, baby
I gotta tell you
That the good guy's supposed to get the girls
And you're supposed to fall in love with me
Well, I came prepared
To show I cared and that I love you
Then I turned on my charm
But you don't respond the way I want you to, baby
Girl, I'm so intense
'Cause I'm convinced my love is better
'Cause his love has done you wrong
Still you hold on and stay together
That's not how the story goes
I gotta tell you
The good guy's supposed to get the girls
And you're supposed to fall in love with me, baby
I gotta tell you
That the good guy's supposed to get the girls
And you're supposed to fall in love with me
Oh, I gotta tell you, baby
The good guy's supposed to get the girls
And you're supposed to fall in love with me, baby
Oo, I gotta tell you
The good guy's supposed to get the girls
That you're supposed to fall in love with me
Not him, but me
'Cause I'm the one you want
I can see it in your eyes
I'm the one you need
I gotta tell you, baby
The good guy's supposed to get the girls
I wanna steal your heart
When you're falling apart
I wanna tell you, baby
The good guy's supposed to get the girls
Gonna be good to you
Wanna be so good, baby
I gotta tell you, baby
The good guy's supposed to get the girls
I wanna love you so
Don't want to let go, baby
I gotta tell you, baby
The good guy's supposed to get the girls
I wanna steal your heart
When you're falling apart
I gotta tell you
The good guy's supposed to get the girls
I gotta tell you, baby
Good guy's supposed to get the girls
Gonna be so true
Gonna be good to you, baby
