Betty, I won't make assumptions About why you switched your homeroom but I think it's 'cause of me Betty, one time I was riding on my skateboard When I passed your house It's like I couldn't breathe You heard the rumors from Inez You can't believe a word she says Most times, but this time it was true The worst thing that I ever did Was what I did to you But if I just showed up at your party Would you have me? Would you want me? Would you tell me to go straight to hell? Or lead me to the garden? In the garden would you trust me If I told you it was just a summer thing? I'm only 17, I don't know anything But I know I miss you Betty, I know where it all went wrong Your favorite song was playing From the far side of the gym I was nowhere to be found I hate the crowds, you know that Plus, I saw you dance with him You heard the rumors from Inez You can't believe a word she says Most times, but this time it was true The worst thing that I ever did Was what I did to you But if I just showed up at your party Would you have me? Would you want me? Would you tell me to go straight to hell? Or lead me to the garden? In the garden would you trust me If I told you it was just a summer thing? I'm only seventeen, I don't know anything But I know I miss you I was walking home on broken cobblestones Just thinking of you when she pulled up like A figment of my worst intentions She said "James, get in, let's drive" Those days turned into nights Slept next to her, but I dreamt of you all summer long Betty, I'm here on your doorstep And I planned it out for weeks now But it's finally sinkin' in Betty, right now is the last time I can dream about what happens when You see my face again The only thing I wanna do Is make it up to you So I showed up at your party Yeah, I showed up at your party Yeah, I showed up at your party Will you have me? Will you love me? Will you kiss me on the porch In front of all your stupid friends? If you kiss me, will it be just like I dreamed it? Will it patch your broken wings? I'm only 17, I don't know anything But I know I miss you Standing in your cardigan Kissin' in my car again Stopped at a streetlight You know I miss you

James, remember me? Its Betty, from your long lost failed romance and i have some things to say
I switched my homeroom cause I knew your face would haunt me at
The ending of each and every day
I heard the rumors from inez
My heart broke with every word she said
Oh well
I should’ve seen the truth
The worst thing that i ever did
Was put my trust in you
So now i'm lonely at these parties
Everybody’s feeling sorry
For the girl who’s got a broken heart
And nothing but the memories
And the garden that I once loved
Is all but dead now
Everything has turned to dust
I’m only seventeen
I didn’t do anything
To deserve this
James i think you know where it went wrong
Back when our song was playing at
the last dance of the year
You were nowhere to be found
Lost in the crowd, I realized
You’re only thinking bout yourself
I heard the rumors from inez
My heart broke with every word she said
Oh well
I should’ve seen the truth
The worst thing that I ever did
Was put my trust in you
So now i'm lonely at these parties
Everybody’s feeling sorry
For the girl who’s got a broken heart
And nothing but the memories
And the garden that I once loved
Is all but dead now
Everything has turned to dust
I’m only seventeen
I didn’t do anything
To deserve this
I was walking home
Heartbroken and alone
And then I saw you
Yeah you walked up like
The image of my worst regret and you said
Betty please
Im sorry
Doesn't mean a thing
You left with her and
I had nightmares all summer long
James, you’re standing on my doorstep
Bet you’ve planned this out for weeks now
But don’t think I’ll let you in
The way you hurt me, showed no mercy
Isn’t something you can just erase
With empty promises
Some nerve you have
To show up here
Too bad
I won’t listen
So u showed up at my party
How could you show up at my party?
Yeah you showed up at my party
Telling me that you still want me
James thats funny cause you left me
For a girl who barely knows you
Driving with her
Was it everything you dreamed of?
Was it worth giving this up?
James, we’re seventeen
Please grow up and see that I don't need you.
You can take your cardigan
Get into her car again
Go far away and never come back.
just a lil rewrite i did from betty's perspective :)
Great job! I just sang this! I love how you re-wrote it!
COULD YOU POSSIBLY DO MIRRORBALL IN HIGHER KEY THAT WOULD MAKE ME SO HAPPY
Betty, I won't make assumptions
About why you switched your homeroom but
I think it's 'cause of me
Betty, one time I was riding on my skateboard
When I passed your house
It's like I couldn't breathe
You heard the rumors from Inez
You can't believe a word she says
Most times, but this time it was true
The worst thing that I ever did
Was what I did to you
But if I just showed up at your party
Would you have me?
Would you want me?
Would you tell me to go straight to hell?
Or lead me to the garden?
In the garden would you trust me
If I told you it was just a summer thing?
I'm only 17, I don't know anything
But I know I miss you
Betty, I know where it all went wrong
Your favorite song was playing
From the far side of the gym
I was nowhere to be found
I hate the crowds, you know that
Plus, I saw you dance with him
You heard the rumors from Inez
You can't believe a word she says
Most times, but this time it was true
The worst thing that I ever did
Was what I did to you
But if I just showed up at your party
Would you have me?
Would you want me?
Would you tell me to go straight to hell?
Or lead me to the garden?
In the garden would you trust me
If I told you it was just a summer thing?
I'm only seventeen, I don't know anything
But I know I miss you
I was walking home on broken cobblestones
Just thinking of you when she pulled up like
A figment of my worst intentions
She said "James, get in, let's drive"
Those days turned into nights
Slept next to her, but
I dreamt of you all summer long
Betty, I'm here on your doorstep
And I planned it out for weeks now
But it's finally sinkin' in
Betty, right now is the last time
I can dream about what happens when
You see my face again
The only thing I wanna do
Is make it up to you
So I showed up at your party
Yeah, I showed up at your party
Yeah, I showed up at your party
Will you have me?
Will you love me?
Will you kiss me on the porch
In front of all your stupid friends?
If you kiss me, will it be just like I dreamed it?
Will it patch your broken wings?
I'm only 17, I don't know anything
But I know I miss you
Standing in your cardigan
Kissin' in my car again
Stopped at a streetlight
You know I miss you
YAY
pls love m e
