Boys Like You lyrics

I tried to tell her from the start,

"That boy is gonna break your heart."

I could not tell what to do,

she thought your love was really true.

I tried to tell her from the start,

"That boy is gonna break your heart."

I could not tell what to do,

she thought your love was really true.  

(She didn't know about) boys like you.

Boys like you,

so untrue,

break your heart in two,

boys like you.

I tried to tell her, 

I tried to tell her, 

but she wouldn't listen to me.

She didn't know about you.

I know all about you.

I know all about you.

I tried to tell her from the start, mm, yeah, 

"That boy is gonna break your heart."

And if she asked me how I knew, yeah, oh,

it's 'cause I used to love him too.

(She didn't know about) boys like you.

Boys like you,

so untrue,

break your heart in two,

boys like you.

Boys like you,

so untrue,

break your heart in two,

boys like you.

Boys like you,

boys like you,

so untrue,

break your heart in two,

boys like you.

(They'll hurt you and desert you).

Boys like you...

(They'll hurt you and deceive you).

(They'll hurt you and... They'll hurt you).

(They'll hurt you and deceive you).

Boys like you...

Boys like you...

(They'll hurt you and deceive you).  

...so untrue.

(They'll hurt you and desert you).  

(They'll hurt you and deceive you, yeah).    

(They'll hurt you and desert you).    

(They'll hurt you and deceive you).    

(They'll hurt you and desert you).
