How You Get The Girl (Taylor’s Version) Lyrics

Oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh

Oh-oh, oh-oh

Oh-oh, oh-oh

Stand there like a ghost

Shaking from the rain, rain

She'll open up the door and say, "Are you insane?"

Say it's been a long 6 months

And you were too afraid to tell her what you want, want

And that's how it works

That's how you get the girl

And then, you say

I want you for worse or for better

I would wait forever and ever

Broke your heart, I'll put it back together

I would wait forever and ever

And that's how it works

That's how you get the girl, girl (Oh-oh)

And that's how it works

That's how you get the girl, girl

Remind her how it used to be, be, yeah-yeah

With pictures in frames of kisses on cheeks, cheeks

Tell her how you must have lost your mind, ooh-ooh

When you left her all alone

And never told her why, why

And that's how it works

That's how you lost the girl

And now, you say

I want you for worse or for better

I would wait forever and ever (Ever and ever)

Broke your heart, I'll put it back together

I would wait forever and ever (Ever and ever)

And that's how it works

That's how you get the girl, girl (Oh-oh)

And that's how it works

That's how you get the girl, girl

Yeah, yeah

And you know

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

That I don't want you to go, oh, oh

Remind me how it used to be

Pictures in frames of kisses on cheeks

And say you want me, yeah-yeah

And then you say

I want you for worse or for better (Worse or for better)

I would wait forever and ever (Ever and ever)

Broke your heart, I'll put it back together

I want you forever and ever (I would wait forever and ever)

And that's how it works

That's how you get the girl, girl (This is how it works)

And that's how it works

That's how you get the girl, girl (Get the girl)

(That's how it works)

And that's how it works

That's how you get the girl, girl

(Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)

And that's how it works

That's how you get the girl, girl

(Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)

And that's how it works

That's how you got the girl
