Standard (EADGBE)

For every academic, there's a dozen coffee shop

and it's hard to sip on latte and conceal the bomb i've got

I think I fell in love with you, it wasn't hard to do

 But if you don't love me back, I'll fall straight through

Well I went for a kiss and I received a shoulder cold

Jack told me I'm copper so I shouldn't mine for gold

but i am underground for every reason to be

 I'm not coming out til you're in love with me

If you follow your heart you're bound to get hurt

 because love is blind it is rarely kind

 when it is it is usually short-lived

I tried to restrain myself took a silly step

I had planned to take it slowly but in retrospect I leapt

so if you wanna walk with me, come on and hold my hand

and hold my gaze into your pupil both expand

now i laid it on the table, put the ball in your court

and I ain't something so trivial to destroy your whole town court

if you feelin' lonely and would like some company

i will drop my plans and claim that i was free.

If you follow your heart you're bound to get hurt

because love is blind it is rarely kind

when it is it is usually short-lived
