lyrics

The boys you like
The boys you like
The boys you like
Don’t like you back

And the girls they like
The girls they like
The girls they like
Don’t like them

Unrequited like
Looking at the back of someone else's head

The boys you like
The boys you like
The boys you like
Don’t text you back

And the girls they like
The girls they like
The girls they like
Don’t text them

Unrequited like
Looking at the back of another person's head

You’re not into him
But he’s into you
And the one you’re into
Isn’t into you

But he’s really into someone else
Who’s really into someone else
Who’s really into someone else
Who’s really into someone else

Unrequited like
Looking at the back of another person's head

Never facing face to face
Never matching up

Never
