Dove Cameron – Boyfriend (prod. Evan Blair)
[Verse 1]
I can’t believe we’re finally alone
I can’t believe I almost went home
What are the chances? Everyone’s dancing
And he’s not with you (Hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm)
[Pre-Chorus 1]
The universe must have divined this
What am I gonna do? Not grab your wrist?
[Chorus]
I could be a better boyfriend than him
I could do the shit that he never did
Up all night, I won’t quit
Thinking I’m gonna steal you from him
I could be such a gentleman
Plus all my clothes would fit
[Post-Chorus]
I could be a better boyfriend
[Verse 2]
I don’t need to tell you twice
All the ways he can’t suffice
If I could give you some advice
I would leave with me tonight
[Pre-Chorus 2]
The universe must have divined this
Mmm, mmm
Ladies first, baby, I insist
[Chorus]
I could be a better boyfriend than him
I could do the shit that he never did
Up all night, I won’t quit
Thinking I’m gonna steal you from him
I could be such a gentleman
Plus all my clothes would fit
[Post-Chorus]
I could be a better boyfriend than him
I could be a better boyfriend
[Bridge]
I never would have left you alone
Here on your own
Glued to your phone
Never would have left you alone
For someone else to take you home
[Chorus]
I could be a better boyfriend than him
I could do the shit that he never did
Up all night, I won’t quit
I’m gonna steal you from him
I could be such a gentleman
Plus you know my clothes would fit
I could be a better boyfriend than him
I could do the shit that he never did
Up all night, I won’t quit
Thinking I’m gonna steal you from him
I could be such a gentleman
Plus all my clothes would fit
