(Oh-ah, no, no, no, no no)
(Ah)

He was like my reflection, but I always turned away
Gave all of my attention to love that led me to pain
Chasing dead ends was the game I knew best
Till I surrendered and who would've guessed?

Now we just follow the signs, not the rules
Me and my guy on the same side, oh-oh-oh
Yeah, that’s how it's supposed to be
Just think of the time that we lose
If we don't try, jumping the line
'Cause I used to tell him: No, no, no, no, no
When he asked me out
Then I said: Fine, let’s go
And he never left my house

He gave me pretty flowers, and I gave him empty threats
I was afraid of falling, but now he's my safety net
Chasing dead ends was the way I survived
But if that's how I'd find him, then I'd do it twice

Now we just follow the signs, not the rules: Me and my guy on the same side, oh-oh-oh
Yeah, that’s how it's supposed to be
Just think of the time that we lose
If we don't try, jumping the line
'Cause I used to tell himno, no, no, no, no (no)
When he asked me out
Then I said: Fine, let’s go
And he never left my house

He's got all of my heart (oh-ah, ah)
And half of my room (me and my guy on the same side)
He's lived in my mind (oh-ah, ah)
Even before I, before I ever knew

Now we just follow the signs, not the rules
Me and my guy on the same side, oh-oh-oh
Yeah, that’s how it's supposed to be
Just think of the time that we lose
If we don't try, jumping the line
'Cause I used to tell him: No, no, no, no, no (no, no)
When he asked me out (me out)
Then I said: Fine, let’s go
And he never left my house
No, no, no, no, no (no, no)
When he asked me out
Then I said: Fine, let’s go
And he never left my house
