The little things you do to me are taking me over 
I wanna show you everything inside of me 
Like a nervous heart that is crazy beating 
My feet are stuck here, against the pavement 
I wanna break free 
I wanna make it closer to your eyes 
Get your attention before you pass me by 

So back up back up take another chance 
Don't you mess up mess up I don't wanna lose you 
Wake up wake up 
This aint just a thing that you give up give up 
Don't you say that I'd be better off better off 
Lleepin by myself and wonderin if im better off better off 
Without you boy 

So don't just leave me hanging on 

And every time, you notice me by holdin me closely, 
And saying sweet things 
I don't believe that it could be 
You speekin your mind and sayin the real thing 
My feet have broke free, and i am leavin 
I'm not gonna stand here feelin lonely 
But I wont forget you 
And i won't think this was just a waste of time 

So back up back up take another chance 
Don't you mess up mess up I don't wanna lose you 
Wake up wake up 
This aint just a thing that you give up give up 
Don't you say that I'd be better off better off 
Lleepin by myself and wonderin if im better off better off 
Without you boy 

So don't just leave me hanging on
