[Verse 1]
I wanna cry when I need it
Don't wanna tell you that I'm breathing out the wrong things
I wanna die when I'm sleeping
I wanna tell you that but maybe I should
[Pre-Chorus]
Maybe I should know better
You're so clever
By yourself in a dirty mess
I'm right-handed, put pen to paper, ah
I'm sentimental
Held down by my feelings
And I don't care cause I'm leaving
I don't want much
I don't need it, ah
[Chorus]
Show me your sure sign
Show me your Levi's
Baby, I wanna know what it feels like to, ooh
To feel enough
Figured I'll feel right
Make me your 9 to 5
Baby, I wanna know what it felt like for you
When you saw love
[Verse 2]
I only lie when I need to
Don't wanna talk until I'm feeling kinda lonely
Now I only cry when you lеave but
Don't wanna tell you that cause maybе I should
[Pre-Chorus]
Maybe I should know better
You're so clever
By yourself in a dirty mess
I'm right-handed, put pen to paper, ah
I'm sentimental
Held down by my feelings
And I don't care cause I'm leaving
I don't want much
I don't need it, ah
[Chorus]
Show me your sure sign
Show me your Levi's
Baby, I wanna know what it feels like to, ooh
To feel enough
Figured I'll feel right
Make me your 9 to 5
Baby, I wanna know what it felt like for you
When you saw love
[Post-Chorus]
(You gotta, you gotta
You gotta, you gotta
You gotta, you gotta)
When you saw love
(You gotta, you gotta
You gotta, you gotta
You gotta, you gotta)
When you saw love
[Bridge - chopped vocals]
I'm way too high
I'm too in my high
I felt you right
You're in, and you're out
I'm 9 to 5
But I don't mind
Made you feel better
When you saw love
When you saw love
[Chorus]
Show me your sure sign
Show me your Levi's
Baby, I wanna know what it feels like to, ooh (I wanna know what it feels like too)
To feel enough
Figured I'll feel right
Make me your 9 to 5
Baby, I wanna know what it felt like for you (Wanna know what it feels like for you)
When you saw love
[Outro]
Show me your sure sign
Show me your Levi's
Figured I'll feel right
Make me your 9 to 5
Baby, I
When you saw love

I wrote this song the same day as I wrote “Come Round.” It’s about accepting yourself and accepting others and how you can’t truly love somebody without that self-acceptance.
