CHARLI XCX
"Every Rule"
(Charlotte Aitchison / Alexander Guy Cook)

When I met you it was tragic
Chemistry something like magic
You were with somebody else in turn
And I was with somebody else as well
Met up late night by the Bowery
And in the morning we got coffee
Acting like strangers, and told no friends
It wasn't easy to pretend

[Pre-Chorus:]
And we know that it's wrong, but it feels real fun
Sneakin' around, fallin' deep in love
But sometimes I get scared
'Cause I know it's unfair
I'm hurting someone else instead

[Chorus:]
I'm breakin' every rule for you
You're breakin' every rule for me
I'm breakin' every rule for you
But I've gotta say
I want it this way
These moments really set me free

[Post-Chorus:]
Ah, ah
Ah-ah-ah, ah
Ah-ah-ah, ah
Ah, ah (Ah-ah)
Ah, ah
Ah-ah-ah, ah
Ah-ah-ah, ah
Ah, ah (Ah-ah)

Straight away we started fallin'
Conversation never borin'
When your lips brushed up against my skin
All I wanted was to let you in
I wonder if people will notice
Said you find it so hard to focus
Cigarettes up on the balcony
Wrapped up in nothing but sheets

[Pre-Chorus:]
And we know that it's wrong
But it feels real fun
Sneakin' around, fallin' deep in love
But sometimes I get scared
'Cause I know it's unfair
I'm hurtin' someone else instead

[Chorus:]
I'm breakin' every rule for you
You're breakin' every rule for me
I'm breakin' every rule for you
But I've gotta say
I want it this way
These moments really set me free

[Outro:]
Ah, ah
Ah-ah-ah, ah
Ah-ah-ah, ah
Ah, ah (Ah-ah)
Ah, ah
Ah-ah-ah, ah
Ah-ah-ah, ah
Ah, ah (Ah-ah)
