Frogs & Princes
Bedingfield Natasha Lyrics

The in and out of dating got me all cofused
I'm feeling confused and overwhelmed because of the ups and downs of dating

I built up expectations and I'm feeling used
I had certain expectations in my relationships and now I feel used and let down

Seems that everybody's into fast food,
It feels like everyone around me is only interested in quick, superficial relationships

Everybody's into quick
People are rushing into things without taking the time to truly get to know each other

I want some one to take the time fine dining not rushing
I'm looking for someone who is willing to take things slow, and to truly get to know each other before rushing into anything

Now it's nearly 7:30, I'm slipping on a dress
It's getting late and I'm getting ready for a date

I keep my fingers crossed, you're not like all the rest,
I hope that this person is different from all the other people I've dated

So when you come to pick me up come right to my door
I hope that this person is chivalrous and comes to the door to pick me up, instead of waiting in the car and honking the horn

Don't stay in your car and beep beep the horn
It's important to me that this person shows respect and treats me like a lady

Baby I'm a hopeless romantic
I'm a person who believes in true love and romance

You pick the sounds for the background to our drive into town
I want this person to take charge and put effort into making the date special

Baby don't be one of the traffic
I don't want this person to be like all the other guys who just go through the motions in dating

Had too many nights with the wrong guys
I've had bad experiences in the past with guys who weren't right for me

Caught me at red lights
Those bad experiences have caused me to hesitate and be cautious in my dating life

Tell me how many frogs do I have to kiss
I'm tired of kissing guys who turn out not to be the right person for me

Before I find my prince, before I find my prince
Before I find the person who is right for me and who I can have a meaningful relationship with

All you girls that are going through this
All the other women who are struggling with dating and finding the right person

Tell 'em how it is, tell 'em how it is
Let's be honest with each other and share our struggles and experiences

Pull up to a premier, red carpet good
This person is taking me to a fancy event and is treating me like a VIP

You take my coat, get my chair, like I hoped you would
This person is being chivalrous and respectful, which is important to me

You're funny and your flirting is really working for me
I'm enjoying this person's company and their sense of humor

But where it goes from here
I'm not sure where this relationship is going to lead

Better wait and see
I need to be patient and see where things go, without rushing into anything too quickly

You pick the view to kiss to
I want this person to take charge and create a romantic atmosphere

Make me go ooo ooo
I want to be swept off my feet and feel a strong connection with this person

And baby it'll all turn out tragic
If things don't work out with this person, it will be a disappointment and a heartbreak

And you'll push for more
This person might try to take things too far, too quickly, which isn't what I want

Back at my front door
After the date, this person will be dropping me off at home

More than I'm ready for
I'm not ready for anything too serious or too physical, and I hope this person respects that

You gotta tip the waiter, that's how it works
It's important to treat service workers with respect and leave a tip for good service

You cant skip the starter and go straight to desert
You have to take things slow and not rush into anything too quickly or too intensely

You've gotta pop the cork before you taste the wine
You need to take certain steps and go through certain milestones before you can really understand and appreciate a relationship

Now make your man dash for the finish line...up in a row cause the dating game is woah,
The dating scene can be overwhelming and difficult to navigate, but it's important to stay true to your own desires and standards

We get hooked up but the shame is
Sometimes we get into relationships that aren't healthy or fulfilling, but we stay in them because we don't want to be alone

Too much connection followed by rejections
We might feel a deep connection with someone, but then that person might reject us, which can be hurtful and confusing

Gonna hurt a girl 'til she learns her lesson
These experiences can be painful, but they can also be learning opportunities that help us grow and find the right person in the end

Oh, yeah yeah
Just a simple expression of emotion to add emphasis or emphasis to the end of the song
