"If She Was A Boy" lyrics

I caught her like a cold in August
It's there a pill to stop the body aches?
She touched my hand, said want to be chaotic
I'll do my time and breathe all the way

She took all my plans and tossed them
Drop all my lines and crossed them
Caution talk into a guilty conscience
I don't really think I'm seeing straight

If I was born another time, another state
Would I be torn between someone you love and someone you tolerate
I'm too afraid of what you think and who's above
But if she was just a boy I'd be in love, I'd be in love

Maybe it's just 'cause she's got a British accent
Maybe it's just 'cause I want to look like her
It's just a phase, I'll brush it off
And I won't think about to touch her
How her skin and hair and lips would pull me under

If I was born another time, another state
Would I be torn between someone you love and someone you tolerate
I'm too afraid of what you think and who's above
But if she was just a boy I'd be in love, I'd be in love

If I was born another time, another state
Would I be torn between someone you love and someone you tolerate
I'm too afraid of what you think and who's above
But if she was just a boy I'd be in love, I'd be in love

I'd be in love, I'd be in love, I'd be in love
I'd be in love, I'd be in love, I'd be in love, I'd be in love
I'd be in love, I'd be in love, I'd be in love
