Lyrics

Liam
Now that you can't have me
You suddenly want me
Now that I'm with somebody else
You tell me you love me

I slept on your doorstep
Begging for one chance
And now that I've finally moved on
You say that you missed me all along
Harry
Who do you think you are?
Who do you think I am?
You only loved to see me breaking
You only want me cause I'm taken

You don't really want my heart
No, you just like to know you can
Still be the one who gets it breaking
You only want me when I'm taken
Liam
You're messing with my head
Girl, that's what you do best
Saying there's nothing you won't do
To get me to say "Yes"

You're impossible to resist
But I wouldn't bet your heart on it
It's like I'm finally awake
And you're just a beautiful mistake
Harry
Who do you think you are?
Who do you think I am?
You only loved to see me breaking
You only want me cause I'm taken

You don't really want my heart
No, you just like to know you can
Still be the one who gets it breaking
You only want me when I'm taken
Zayn
Thank you for showing me
Who you are underneath
No, thank you, I don't
Need another heartless misery

You think I'm doing this to make you jealous
And I know that you hate to hear this
But this is not about you anymore...
Harry
Who do you think you are?
Who do you think I am?
You only loved to see me breaking
You only want me cause I'm taken

You don't really want my heart
No, you just like to know you can (No you don't, no you don't)
Still be the one who gets it breaking (breaking)
You only want me when I'm taken
Liam
Now that you can't have me
You suddenly want me
