Deep Down

[Verse 1]
I heard all the boys in the back put you top of their list
Because you've got that look like you've never been kissed
Yeah, you can take 'em all out with a flick of your wrist
You are a liar and a thief, I'm an opportunist
I come around to your house 'cause I couldn't resist
I leave a note on your door, so you know what you missed
And there's a lump in my heart, it's the size of a fist
'Cause I ought to hit you where it hurts, so you know I exist, yeah

[Chorus]
And if you weren't so irresponsible
I could love you
But as it is

[Verse 2]
I got to play things down so they never suspect
I wear the soft-sole shoes so they cannot detect
I wrote a letter in code cause I can't be direct
And if you ever head back, I will come and collect, yeah

[Pre-Chorus]
My undercover lover
I want to know what you feel
Deep down
Deep down

[Chorus]
And if you weren't so condescending
I could love you
But as it is
Deep down
Deep down
Deep down
Deep down

[Bridge]
My undercover lover
I don't care what anyone else says
My undercover lover
I don't care what anyone else says

One hand washes the other (My undercover lover)
I look for signs and secrets (I don't care what anyone else says)
One hand washes the other (My undercover lover)
I look for signs and secrets (I don't care what anyone else says)

And if you don't know
What to think of this
I'll forgive you (I'll forgive you)
I think you really do
Yeah, I think you do know

[Outro]
Deep down
Deep down
Deep down
Deep down
Deep down (My undercover lover)
Deep down (I don't care what anyone else says)
Deep down (My undercover lover)
Deep down (I don't care what anyone else)
