Jade Bird - Headstart Lyrics

They say I act around you
Different than I usually do
They say that I've even
Given special treatment
I'd deny it but I can't
What you don't seem to understand
Is I won't just take your hand
I've left signs but you take no notice

Why's it so hard?
Why's it so hard?
Why's it so hard?
I've given you a head start
I know us girls aren't easy
But come on
What do you need to see?
I've given you a head start

I've more pride than many
This is kind of rare for me
Everyone knows that it's true
You're the only one in the room
But you don't see me, do you?
Must be blind not to
That's alright I'll keep on
Putting myself on the line

Why's it so hard?
Why's it so hard?
Why's it so hard?
I've given you a head start
I know us girls aren't easy
But come on
What do you need to see?
I've given you a head start

Is there a way to get your attention
Without looking like a fool?
Should I slip it in our conversations?
"By the way, I love you"

Why's it so hard?
Why's it so hard?
Why's it so hard?
I've given you a head start
I know us girls aren't easy
But come on
What do you need to see?
I've given you a head start
