[Verse 1]
You wear your heart upon your sleeve
For everyone to see
And the hardest part when you're torn apart
Is fixing the seams

[Pre-Chorus]
Been hurt too many times
Heard one too many lies
He'd disappear for hours
No, he never bought you flowers

[Chorus]
If he wanted to, he would
But thank God that he didn't
It only took me one night
To show you what you were missin'
You pulled me closer, then you whispered
"You're the best I've ever had"
I'm gon' treat you like you should
If he wanted to, he would

[Post-Chorus]
If he wanted to, he would
If he wanted to, he would
[Verse 2]
Now you spend your time in my black Corvette
You converted me, God, I love brunettes
You're a fire sign, but you're delicate
You speak your mind and I'm into it

[Pre-Chorus]
When you know, you know it's right
I'm not like the last guy
He'd disappear for hours
No, he never bought you flowers

[Chorus]
If he wanted to, he would
But thank God that he didn't
It only took me one night
To show you what you were missin'
You pulled me closer, then you whispered
"You're the best I've ever had"
I'm gon' treat you like you should
If he wanted to, he would

[Post-Chorus]
If he wanted to, he would
If he wanted to, he would
[Bridge]
You and that little black dress
Are in my heart for forever
Keep your picture 'round my neck
So you always remember
You and that little black dress
Are in my heart for forever
Keep your picture 'round my neck
So you always remember

[Chorus]
If he wanted to, he would
But thank God that he didn't
It only took me one night
To show you what you were missing
You pulled me closer, then you whispered
"You're the best I've ever had"
I'm gon' treat you like you should
If he wanted to, he would

[Post-Chorus]
If he wanted to, he would (If he wanted to, he—)
If he wanted to, he would
