CONTRACTually Yours

Mmm-mmm…

Ooh…

I thought it was just business…

Oops…

You were drunk beneath the city lights,

I was just trying to get you home that night.

One little favor, then another one came,

You put a price on everything I became.

“You need help? I’ll pay you for it.”

I rolled my eyes, but I couldn’t ignore it.

You had the money, I needed the break,

So I played along for every deal we’d make.

You said, “It’s only business,”

I said, “Exactly, nothing more.”

But every time you call my name,

I forget what we agreed before.

Oops, I caught feelings,

Somewhere between the “yes, sir” and the teasing.

I came for the money, stayed for the way

You look at me like you’ve got something to say.

Oops, I caught feelings,

Now every little favor has a different meaning.

You pay me for my time,

But somehow, baby,

You’re the one stealing mine.

You thought you needed someone by your side,

I thought I needed money just to survive.

But when the world came crashing at your door,

Funny how I was the one you called for.

You’ve got the cars, the suits, the fancy life,

I’ve got a mouth that can cut you like a knife.

You give the orders, I tell you when you’re wrong,

Somehow that’s the reason we keep getting along.

You say, “Don’t get too close.”

I say, “Who’s getting close to who?”

Then you smile that stupid smile,

And suddenly I don't know what to do.

Oops, I caught feelings,

Somewhere between the “yes, sir” and the teasing.

I came for the money, stayed for the way

You look at me like you’ve got something to say.

Oops, I caught feelings,

Now every little favor has a different meaning.

You pay me for my time,

But somehow, baby,

You’re the one stealing mine.

Paid for a favor, favor turned to flirting,

Flirting turned to feelings, now my heart is hurting!

You said, “No feelings,” I said, “No problem!”

Then you smiled, I stumbled—

Oops, there goes my logic!

Rich boy, big talk,

Quick walk, heart shock,

You boss me, I sass back,

One look—and I lose track!

Final Chorus — bigger]

Oops, I caught feelings,

Didn't see it coming, now my heart is screaming.

I came for the money,

But money can't explain

Why hearing your voice

Makes me smile again.

Oops, I caught feelings,

Guess this wasn't part of our agreement.

You can keep your money,

Just give me one thing—

Stay.

Mmm-mmm…

“So… are you still paying me?”

“For what?”

“For staying.”
