Never Gonna Take It Back

[Verse 1]

I noticed her laugh before her name

Took a whole minute just to breathe

She drew a map on the table edge

And I forgot what I came to say

Something in me went quiet

Something in me went bright

Something in me decided

Tonight

[Chorus]

I like girls

I like girls

The soft kind the loud kind

The ones who take up space

I like girls

I like girls

And I stopped apologizing

For the way my pulse behaves

[Verse 2]

My mother asked me who I'm bringing home

I said a person who makes me kind

She smiled slow like she already knew

And passed me the potatoes anyway

[Pre-Chorus]

No more hiding in the hallway

No more practicing my face

I'm just standing in the doorway

[Chorus]

I like girls

I like girls

The soft kind the loud kind

The ones who take up space

I like girls

I like girls

And I stopped apologizing

For the way my pulse behaves

[Bridge]

I was taught to shrink

I was taught to smile

I was taught to wait

I am done with that

[Chorus]

I like girls

I like girls

The brave kind the strange kind

The ones who know my name

I like girls

I like girls

And I'm never gonna take it back

Never gonna take it back
