I see more than what you show me
So I'm likely to overstate our chemistry
If you like, babe, I might take you shopping for a few things
You could use some tender love and ice cream
I know what you need so let me help, babe
You say, okay, I'm blown away
'Cause girls fall in love with potential
And that's how you got this far
And girls only see what they want to
And that's how you'll break her heart
He could be amazing, I know I could save him
These are all the stories we tell ourselves
'Cause girls fall in love with potential
We fall, we fall in love
How you feel about sipping on Champagne all day?
How you feel about browsing my internet high speed?
How you living now? Isn't it time for an upgrade?
What you think about spending your weekends up state?
How you feel about learning how to speak a different language?
What you think about vacationing in the Maldives?
Am I projecting the man you cannot be?
Are you even worth it now?
'Cause girls fall in love with potential
And that's how you got this far
And girls only see what they want to
And that's how you'll break her heart
He could be amazing, I know I could save him
These are all the stories we tell ourselves
'Cause girls fall in love with potential
We fall, we fall in love
Let me get you right, babe
Before I bring you 'round my friends
I need to get you right, babe (need to get you right)
No matter how much time it takes
'Cause you're my science project (you're my little science project)
I don't mind investing in
So let me get you right, babe (baby, yeah)
Before it gets embarrassing (before it gets embarrassing)
'Cause girls fall in love with potential
And that's how you got this far
And girls only see what they want to
And that's how you'll break her heart
He could be amazing, I know I could save him
These are all the stories we tell ourselves
'Cause girls fall in love with potential
We fall, we fall in love (we fall in love)
(That's how we we fallin' in love)
