You hate star signs
And so do I
Were extroverts
And hate to be alone
Always too scared to open up
Cause we’ve been hurt before
And given up on love
Everybody else around us
Says we’re too alike
You and I
But maybe similar things
Can attract sometimes
We don’t work on paper
But I can read between the lines
You know how to speak my language
When I don’t have the words to write
The way you push and pull me
It makes me lose my mind
But baby I’m not complaining
That we don’t work on paper
We don’t work on paper
We both long for affection
But when feelings show up
We tend to run
We hide behind irrational insecurities
And laugh through it all
So nobody sees
We both lie when it gets too much
Everybody else around us
Says we’re too alike
You and I
But maybe similar things
Can attract sometimes
We don’t work on paper
But I can read between the lines
You know how to speak my language
When I don’t have the words to write
The way you push and pull me
It makes me lose my mind
But baby I’m not complaining
That we don’t work on
They may say that we’re too young
Wasted and reckless and dumb
But even though it could get ugly
Just promise that you’ll still love me
They may be right
But I don’t care
We don’t work on paper
But I can read between the lines
You know how to speak my language
When I don’t have the words to write
The way you push and pull me
It makes me lose my mind
But baby I’m not complaining
That we don’t work on paper
