Teenage Fantasy - Jorja Smith

You weren’t the boy I thought I knew

Maybe I was blind, I was young, I didn’t have a clue

You were the topic of my lunch times

I’d bore the girls about our chats

And get upset when you didn’t text back

I was warned by my brothers to find another lover

Stop falling for these boys who didn’t want the same as me

And I was warned by my brothers to find another lover

Stop falling for these boys who didn’t want the same as me

We all want a teenage fantasy

Want it when we can’t have it

When we got it we don’t seem to want it

We all want a teenage fantasy

Want it when we can’t have it

When we got it we don’t seem to want it

I’ve got a lot of things to do

What if I had been a fool and thought I was in love with you

I need to grow and find myself before I let somebody love me

Because at the moment I don’t know me

When I was told by my father, if I look into the future

Do I really see this boy, that I think I’ve fallen for?

And I was told by my mother, if I look into the future

Do I really see this boy, that I think I’ve fallen for?

We all want a teenage fantasy

Want it when we can’t have it

When we got it we don’t seem to want it, no

We all want a teenage fantasy

Want it when we can’t have it

When we got it we don’t seem to want it

When we are young, we all want someone

Who we think is the one, just to fit in

There’s no need to rush, take your time

Life’s a big old ride, sit back and enjoy the vibe

When we are young, we all want someone

Who we think is the one, just to fit in

There’s no need to rush, take your time

Life’s a big old ride, sit back and enjoy the vibe

We all want a teenage fantasy

Want it when we can’t have it

When we got it we don’t seem to want it

We all want a teenage fantasy

Want it when we can’t have it

When we got it we don’t seem to want it
