Lyrics of Think Outside the Boy by Lauren Alaina
verse
Sweet sixteen's a beautiful thing
Full of small-town hopes, and big city dreams
Your diary's filled with getaway plans
Then he sweeps in, and just like that
pre-chorus
You're rewriting your story for him
All your wishes are gone with the wind
Well, if you think that he's all that there is
chorus
Think outside the boy
Look right past his charm
He's not your definition
No, he ain't who you are
If you don't love yourself
He sure ain't gonna help
There's so much more to life than living like his wind-up toy
Think outside the boy, ooh
Think outside the boy
verse
Well, I've been there, yeah
I believed that he was my forever
He was all I'd ever need
But I gave up what I wanted
And I gave him control
I lost myself, in a deep, dark hole
pre-chorus
I'm here to tell you that it's never too late
To cut the strings and to take back your fate
And find yourself again along the way
chorus
Just think outside the boy
Look right past his charm
He's not your definition
No, he ain't who you are
If you don't love yourself
He sure ain't gonna help
There's so much more to life than living like his wind-up toy
bridge
Oh, when the right one comes along
He won't make you choose
When the right one comes along
He'll love that you, think outside the boy
Ooh, think outside the boy
chorus
If you don't love yourself
He sure ain't gonna help
There's so much more to life than living like his wind-up toy
Think outside the boy, ooh
Think outside the boy
