[Verse 1]
When all of the heavy hearts have broken their back
And all of the diehard valentines are callin' me back
[Pre-Chorus]
You can find me at the restaurant, you can find me at the pool (Pool)
You can find me at the mistletoe
Playin' it cool, singin', just unplug with me
What's the rush? I wanna know, just unplug with me
[Chorus]
I don't wanna love you, I don't want your hand
But we can watch TV in the morning, drinking coffee in my bed
I don't wanna love you, I don't have no plans, no
You can stay over if you want to, stay over if you can
[Verse 2]
And all of the golden bands are tight as a noose
And all of the Volvos thunder past remind me of you
[Pre-Chorus]
Not gonna find me at counselin', not gonna find me at the school
I'll be waitin' by the mistletoe
Playin' it cool, singin', just unplug with me (Me)
What's the rush? I wanna know, just unplug with me
[Chorus]
I don't wanna love you, I don't want your hand
But we can watch TV in the morning, drinking coffee in my bed
I don't wanna love you, I don't have no plans, no
You can stay over if you want to, stay over if you can (Ah, oh-oh-oh)
[Post-Chorus]
Stay over if you want to, stay over if you can (Ah, oh-oh-oh)
Stay over if you want to, stay over if you can (Ooh)
[Bridge]
Come be my companion (Come be my companion), come be my friend (Be my friend)
Wanna let some steam off (Wanna let some steam off), you know where I am (You know where I am)
Come be my companion (You know where I am), come be my friend (You know)
If you need a companion, you know where I am (You know where I am, no)
[Chorus]
I don't wanna love you, I don't want your hand (Hand)
But we can watch TV in the morning, drinking coffee in my bed
I don't wanna love you (Don't wanna love you), I don't have no plans (Don't have no plans), no
You can stay over if you want to (Over if you want to), stay over if you can (Stay over if you can)
I don't wanna love you (I don't wanna love you), I don't want your hand (I don't wanna wear your hand)
But we can watch TV in the morning (Can be watchin' the TV in the morning), drinking coffee in my bed (You'll never want out of my bed)
I don't wanna love you (It's not that I love you), I don't have no plans, no (I just want you here tonight)
You can stay over if you want to, stay over if you can (Over if you can)
[Post-Chorus]
Over if you can
Over if you can
Over if you can
Stay over if you can
