You can't force him to love you He can't expect you to be alright With all the bullshit he gives you You wake up drenched in mosquito bites But if you fall in love with a girl She'll make you feel like the world is on your shoulder When you're holding her hand The first time that you kiss You'll smell lilacs on her lips When you need a little space You know that she'll understand That boy, let him go Lights are on But no one's home And I've seen enough Find your pearl And fall in love With a girl I never wanted to see him I just wanted to be someone That you see on your ceiling He never saw me in anyone I wanna say how I'm feeling We haven't talked in like 18 months I told my boyfriend I'm leaving I thought that maybe we could hook up I heard you fell in love with a girl She makes you feel like the world is on your shoulder When you're holding her hand She'll love you carefully Drawing letters on the beach And you finally found a place Where you don't have to pretend That boy, let him go Lights are on But no one's home And I've seen enough Find your pearl And fall in love With a girl That boy, let him go Lights are on But no one's home And I've seen enough Find your pearl And fall in love With a girl Lights are on But no one's home
