Boys Like You Lyrics

Momma said there'd be boys like you
Tearing my heart in two, doing what you do, best
Taking me for a ride, telling me pretty little lies
But with you, I can't resist

Before I met you, I never felt good enough
Before I let you, in, I'd already given up
Left on read, no reply, left me just wondering why
Now I'm skeptical of love

So when you hold my hand, do you wanna hold my heart?
When you say you want me, is it all of me or just one part?
So when you hold my hand, do you wanna hold my heart?
When you say you want me

Momma said there'd be boys like you
Tearing my heart in two, doing what you do, best
Taking me for a ride, telling me pretty little lies
But with you, I can't resist
Maybe momma doesn't always know best

I'm terrified, but I'll never let you know
Social suicide, if I ever let it show
Everything feels just right
I fall in place, we fall in line
I'll never let you go

So when you hold my hand, do you wanna hold my heart?
When you say you want me, is it all of me or just one part?
So when you hold my hand, do you wanna hold my heart?
When you say you want me
Is it all of me? yeah

Momma said there'd be boys like you
Tearing my heart in two, doing what you do, best
Taking me for a ride, telling me pretty little lies
But with you, I can't resist
Maybe momma doesn't always know best

So when you hold me (when you hold me), am I the only one?
Do you wanna know me (do you wanna know me), or is this all just for fun?

Momma said there'd be boys like you
Tearing my heart in two, doing what you do, best
Taking me for a ride, telling me pretty little lies
But with you, I can't resist, no, no
Maybe momma doesn't always know best

Momma said there'd be boys like you
Too good to be true, mm-mm, doing what you do, best
Taking me for a ride, telling me pretty little lies
But for you, for you, for you I'll take that risk

What is the Meaning of Boys Like You?

In this emotionally charged ballad, the artist navigates the tumultuous sea of love and heartbreak. She illustrates a tale of warning from her mother about certain boys who are adept at breaking hearts with their charming lies. Despite these cautionary words, she finds herself irresistibly drawn to one such boy. Her inner conflict is palpable as she questions his intentions - does he truly desire her completely or is it all just a game? Even though she's been hurt before, there's something different about him that makes her willing to risk it all again. This poignant song serves as a reminder that while love can be fraught with pain and uncertainty, sometimes it's worth taking the risk for the chance at something extraordinary.
