Lyrics of Piece Of You by Shawn Mendes
intro
Yeah, it makes me wanna cry
Don′t know what to do
It's so hard, but it′s true
Everybody wants a piece
verse
I get reckless, I'm obsessive
I'm pathetic and possessive
You′re so sure it makes me insecure
You′re majestic, mesmerizing
Light the room up without tryin'
Baby, I′m so into you, it hurts
pre-chorus
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah, it just isn't fair
What you put in the air?
I don′t wanna share
chorus
Everybody wants a piece of you
I get jealous but who wouldn't when you look like you do?
From the second you walk in the room
My night is ruined
Everybody wants a piece
verse
One, two, three
So do I, maybe I′m selfish
Just one touch is so electric
Every little thing you do feels right, yeah
I'm sorry if I get protective
Need these boys to get the message
You know I'm yours
I know you′re mine
chorus
Everybody wants a piece of you, yeah
I get jealous but who wouldn′t when you look like you do?
From the second you walk in the room
My night is ruined
Everybody wants a piece
bridge
It's so hard, but it′s true
It's so hard, but it′s true
Everybody wants a piece
pre-chorus
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah, it just isn't fair
What you put in the air?
I don′t wanna share
outro
Everybody wants a piece of you (No, they all want a piece)
I get jealous
But who wouldn't when you look like you do? (No, it just isn't fair babe)
From the second you walk in the room
My night is ruined
Everybody wants a piece
Writer(s): Scott Harris, Shawn Mendes, John Ryan, Ricky Reed
