I love going to movies all alone
I’ll show up to your party on my own
I don’t need anybody to set me free
But I love when a boy loves me

I can dance to the music all by myself
I don’t need your opinions up on my shelf
I’m as independent as I can be
But I love when a boy loves me

Cause I can be strong like the waves on the sand
And I can be tough, I can thicken my skin
Cause I’ve always played to my own melody
But I love when a boy loves me

I can circle the earth, do the things I’ve dreamt
Yeah, I know what I’m worth, I can pay my rent
I can live out a life like a movie scene
But I love when a boy loves me

Cause I can be strong like the waves on the sand
And I can be tough, I can thicken my skin
Cause I’ve always played to my own melody
But I love when a boy loves me

Staying up till morning on the telephone
Someone to look forward to when I get home
I know it don’t make me all of me
But I'm starting to see
Yeah, I'm starting to see

And I can be strong like the waves on the sand
And I can be tough, I can thicken my skin
Cause I’ve always played to my own melody
But I love when a boy loves me

And I can be strong like the waves on the sand
And I can be tough, I can thicken my skin
Cause I’ve always played to my own melody
But I love when a boy loves me

Love when a boy loves me
Love when a boy loves me
Love when a boy loves me
