Lyrics of the Lost

Play along at home with the lyrics: [Verse 1] It’s fine, it's cool You can say that we are nothing but you know the truth And guess i'm the fool With her arms out like an angel through the car sunroof [Pre-Chorus] I don't wanna call it off But you don't wanna call it love You just wanna love someone who calls you baby [Chorus] You can kiss a hundred boys in bars Shoot another shot, try to stop the feeling You can say it's just the way you are Make a new excuse another stupid reason Good luck, babe! Well good luck, babe! You’d have to stop the world just to stop the feeling Good luck, babe! Well good luck, babe! You’d have to stop the world just to stop the feeling [Verse 2] I’m cliche Who cares It's a sexually explicit kind of love affair And i cry, it's not fair I just need a little lovin’ i just need a little air [Pre-Chorus] Think im gonna call it off Even if you call it love I just wanna love someone who calls me baby [Chorus] You can kiss a hundred boys in bars Shoot another shot, try to stop the feeling You can say it's just the way you are Make a new excuse another stupid reason Good luck, babe! Well good luck, babe! You’d have to stop the world just to stop the feeling Good luck, babe! Well good luck, babe! You’d have to stop the world just to stop the feeling [Bridge] And when you wake up next to him in the middle of the night With your head in your hands you’re nothing more than his wife And when you think about me all of those years ago You're standing face to face with ""i told you so"" You know I hate to say , i told you so You know i hate to say it but, i told you so Well i told you so [Chorus] You can kiss a hundred boys in bars Shoot another shot, try to stop the feeling You can say it's just the way you are Make a new excuse another stupid reason Good luck, babe! Well good luck, babe! You’d have to stop the world just to stop the feeling Good luck, babe! Well good luck, babe! [Outro] You’d have to stop the world just to stop the feeling You’d have to stop the world just to stop the feeling You’d have to stop the world just to stop the feeling You’d have to stop the world just to stop the feeling Jump to section: (00:12) Introduction but no waffling like you get on some podcasts.
