Pretty Boy Lyrics

Baby, kiss me in the hallway

But never utter my name to anyone else around

Cause lately it feels like a daydream

And all this wishful thinking simply ran out

Baby, I hear you calling my name

Don't know if that's the real thing or echoing sound

Cause maybe my jokes aren't falling lately

And now I'm back to playing in your background

Hold me close another note longer

Don't let go, my soul's at your altar

Tell me I'm a pretty, pretty boy

Kiss me in the evening then hang me out to dry

Feel my heart through your jacket's corduroy

Get to feel my name on your lips for just one night

Baby, kissing on me sideways

Don't bother asking my name or what I'm about

Cause baby, I know you think I'm lovely

And you love that my arms feel like you're in a cloud

Baby, I wish I felt the same way

But I can't help but feeling like I can't be proud

Cause "sexy" just isn't really my thing

I'm better off if I'm seen in your background

Hold me close another note longer

Don't let go, my soul's at your altar

Tell me I'm a pretty, pretty boy

Kiss me in the evening then hang me out to dry

Feel my heart through your jacket's corduroy

Get to feel my name on your lips for just one night

Pretty boy, oh, I'm your pretty boy

If only you could want me under cover of twilight

Pretty boy, oh, pretty, pretty boy

If you could call me that for once in your life

You rode in on a flame as I watched it burn out

You burrowed into my heart and turned me around

I wish that you could need me and love me at first sight

But I can't love myself if I'm not in the right light

Tell me I'm your pretty, pretty boy

Kiss me in the evening then hang me out to dry

Feel my heart through your jacket's corduroy

Get to feel my name on your lips for just one night

Pretty boy, oh, I'm your pretty boy

If only you could want me under cover of twilight

Pretty boy, oh, pretty, pretty boy

If you could call me that for once in your life
