"Bad Reputation"
She's got a bad reputation
She takes the long way home
And all of my friends've seen her naked
Or so the story goes
Mistakes we all make them
But they won't let it go, no
She's got a bad reputation
But I know what they don't, ooh
And I don't care what they say about you baby
They don't know what you've been through
Trust me, I could be the one to treat you like a lady
Let me see what's underneath, all I need is you
She got a bad reputation
Nobody gets too close
A sight of a soul when it's breaking
Making my heart grow cold
And into the deeper she's sinking
I'm begging her please don't let go
She's got a bad reputation
But she's all that... all I want, though
And I don't care what they say about you baby
They don't know what you've been through
And trust me, I could be the one to treat you like a lady
Let me see what's underneath, all I need is you
Nobody knows the way that I know her, said
Nobody knows the way that time has shown us it
Nobody knows the way that I know her, said
She got it bad, she got it bad
Nobody knows the way that I know her, said
Nobody knows the way that time has shown us it
Nobody knows the way that I know her, said
She got it bad, she got it bad
And I don't care what they say about you baby
They don't know what you've been through
Trust me, I could be the one to treat you like a lady
Let me see what's underneath, all I need is you
And I don't care what they say about you baby
They don't know what you've been through
Trust me, I could be the one to treat you like a lady
Let me see what's underneath, all I need is you
She's got a bad reputation
She takes the long way home
"Honest"
Hey, how's it going?
Can you meet down on Eli street?
Can you talk for a moment?
There's no way to say this that easily
And everything I said, I swear I meant it
I need to tell you that this isn't your fault
And I know that I'll probably regret it
And it kills me 'cause the worst by the phone
It's that I hate to hurt you but I got to be honest
I can't give you what you need
You deserve more than I can promise
And I'm just tryna, I'm just tryna
Baby, I'm just tryna be honest
I'm tryna be honest with you
You know that I'm sorry
But I'm tryna be honest with you
Hey, can you listen?
I swear to God to you, there's nobody else
You're gonna say that I'm lying
When I tell you every feeling I felt
Was honest and sincere and that you were different
And when we kissed I felt like that kid in love, yeah
And I know that I'll probably regret it
And I wish I never said this at all
Oh, I hate to hurt you but I got to be honest
I can't give you what you need
Oh, you deserve more than I can promise
And I'm just tryna, I'm just tryna
Baby, I'm just tryna be honest
I'm tryna be honest with you
You know that I'm sorry
But I'm tryna be honest with you
Oh oh oh, I don't want to see you cry
Oh oh oh, swear that I don't want to see you cry
Cause I hate to hurt you but I got to be honest
I can't give you what you need
Oh, you deserve more than I can promise
And I'm just tryna, I'm just tryna
Baby, I'm just tryna be honest
I hate to hurt you but I got to be honest
I can't give you what you need
Oh, you deserve more than I can promise
And I'm just tryna, I'm just tryna
Baby, I'm just tryna be honest
"Don't Be A Fool"
You've got my heart
But I can't let you keep it, babe
Cause I won't be sure that I can stay
And don't waste your time
Trying to pull me in
Cause I'm just a mess
You don't wanna fix
Just promise me one thing that you won't forget
But for now kiss me softly before I say
And don't be a fool
And wait on me darling
I know that you don't wanna hear this
But I'm always on the move
And don't be a fool
And say that you love me
Cause you'll find a man
Who will stand by your side
And will be there for you
And just know that I do
Oh I really like you babe
And I wanna be there for you
For the rest of your days

If we keep on doing this
So I'm sorry to end this now
But I know that it's for the best

"Like This"
They say it's not supposed to be
Tell me not to waste my time
This was never up to me
But if it was I wouldn't mind
And I'm trying to ignore you
Trying to go on with my day, hey
But I still pick up the phone, yeah
And get lost in what you say
I can try to stop it, all I like
Hands down, I've lost this fight
Thought I was strong enough for you
But I just can't hide the truth
So I guess I'm going down
I guess I'm going down
Like this
And I love it how she's honest
You don't find it nowadays
She's not even drop dead gorgeous
But she kills me anyway
I can try to stop it, all I like
Hands down, I've lost this fight
Thought I was strong enough for you
But I just can't hide the truth
I guess I'm going down
I guess I'm going down
I guess I'm going down
Like this
I can try to stop it, all I like
Hands down, I've lost this fight
Thought I was strong enough for you
But I just can't hide the truth

Hands down, I've lost this fight
And I thought I was strong enough for you
But I just can't hide the truth
So I guess I'm going down
Like this
"Treat You Better"
I won't lie to you
I know he's just not right for you
And you can tell me if I'm off
But I see it on your face
When you say that he's the one that you want
And you're spending all your time
In this wrong situation
And anytime you want it to stop
I know I can treat you better than he can
And any girl like you deserves a gentleman
Tell me why are we wasting time
On all your wasted crying
When you should be with me instead
I know I can treat you better
Better than he can
I'll stop time for you
The second you say you'd like me too
I just wanna give you the loving that you're missing
Baby, just to wake up with you
Would be everything I need and this could be so different
Tell me what you want to do
'Cause I know I can treat you better than he can
And any girl like you deserves a gentleman
Tell me why are we wasting time
On all your wasted crying
When you should be with me instead
I know I can treat you better
Better than he can
Better than he can
Give me a sign
Take my hand, we'll be fine
Promise I won't let you down
Just know that you don't
Have to do this alone
Promise I'll never let you down
'Cause I know I can treat you better than he can
And any girl like you deserves a gentleman
Tell me why are we wasting time
On all your wasted crying
When you should be with me instead
I know I can treat you better
Better than he can
Better than he can
Better than he can
"Lights On"
Damn, you look so good with your clothes on
And I'm not trying to come off too strong
But you know that I can't help it

And I can't deny I want your body
But I'm a gentleman so I'll be
The one who takes it slowly
Cause girl you're so beautiful
