(Snippet)

[Verse 1]
I paint this picture in my head
(But I guess I) just don’t live in reality
(And now I admit that) it’s so pathetic that I can’t
(Guess I’m thinking) about how perfect we could be

[Chorus]
Why you gotta go and get my hopes up?
And love me like you did, then act like I did not exist
Get distracted then you're gone (Come on)
Why you gotta go and get my hopes up?
You had me so convinced, you loved me from the beginning
Now I know that I was wrong (Come on)
Why you gotta go and get my hopes up?

[Verse 2]
Oh, I was so excited today
You make the whole thing go away
Guеss I got too hooked so easily
You said you'd stay right herе with me

[Bridge]
And when your body's lost in a way, put it down in a long time
I didn’t know what is good (Uh)
[Chorus]
Why you gotta go and get my hopes up?
And love me like you're near, then you wanna disappear
Keep me up till the dawn (Come on)
Why you gotta go and get my hopes up?
You had me so convinced, you loved me from the beginning
Now I know that I was wrong (Come on)
Why you gotta go and get my hopes up?

[Outro]
La-la-la, la
La-la-la, la
La-la-la, la
Why you gotta go and get my hopes up?
La-la-la, la
La-la-la, la
La-la-la, la
Why you gotta go and get my hopes up?
