lyrics

Hit Me Harder

You think you're kind of sharp
In your four-inch heels
You drink like your daddy does
Well all of the talk over the cigarettes
You said you don't believe in love

But I think I kind of like you
Might take you home tonight, yeah
Maybe even settle down

So hit me harder, 'cause it feels good
And leave me with a lesson that I'll never learn
And if I embraced you, I must confess
Your words don't mean a thing when you're in that dress
So hit me harder, 'cause it's all I know
Just one more forced apology, and I'll go

You're the prettiest thing that I would never touch
And all of our talk that was
Turned into screaming, over bourbon and gin
Are the reasons to believe in us

But I think that I could take you
Maybe even change you
And make you settle down

So hit me harder, 'cause it feels good
And leave me with a lesson that I'll never learn
And if I embraced you, I must confess
Your words don't mean a thing when you're in that dress
So hit me harder, 'cause it's all I know
Just one more forced apology, and I'll go

And all of the chances that you told me to take
With your lips to mine in the club bathrooms
And all of the hearts that you love to break
Well you'll never change.

So hit me harder, 'cause it feels good
And leave me with a lesson that I'll never learn
And if I embraced you, I must confess
Your words don't mean a thing when you're in that dress
So hit me harder, 'cause it's all I know
Just one more forced apology, and I'll go
