She likes the boys who can dance and she likes musicians Signed pictures of 'em all hanging there by her bedroom shelf She just wants to be like the girls on the television 'Cause no one ever told her, it was okay to love herself
Oh-oh-oh-oh Be still, beating heart 'Cause this is her show And you'll never be the star
'Cause she falls in love every night Don't even know your name but know it's right You'll know her in the crowd just by her eyes It's not her fault that she wants what she wants, yeah She falls in love every night And she don't even know what love is like She been dancing in the dark for all her life It's not her fault that she wants what she wants, yeah
She sings her favorite songs does her makeup in the bathroom She dances in the mirror, lays her dresses out on the bed She'll leave her lipstick on you like a tattoo So when you try to wash it off you'll remember that you can't forget
Oh-oh-oh-oh Be still, beating heart, oh 'Cause this is her show And you'll never be the star
'Cause she falls in love every night Don't even know your name but know it's right You'll know her in the crowd just by her eyes It's not her fault that she wants what she wants, yeah She falls in love every night And she don't even know what love is like She been dancing in the dark for all her life It's not her fault that she wants what she wants, yeah Oh, oh, oh It's not her fault that she wants what she wants, yeah
