Hide Away Lyrics – Daya

[Verse 1]
Boys seem to like the girls who laugh at anything
The ones who get undressed before the second dat
irls seem to like the boys who don’t appreciate
All the money and the time that it takes

[Pre-Chorus 1]
To be fly as a mother
Got my both eyes out for Mr. Right
Guessing I just don’t know where to find ’em
But I hope they all come out tonight

[Chorus]
Where do the good boys go to hide away, hide away?
I’m a good good girl who needs a little company
Looking high and low, someone let me know
Where do the good boys go to hide away, hide away?

[Verse 2]
Boys seem to like the girls who like to kiss and tell
Talking them up about the things they do so well
But I’d rather find a boy who is down for the chase
Putting in the time that it takes

[Pre-Chorus 2]
To be fly as a mother
To supply all of my heart’s demands
Suit and tie, cause undercover
He’s gonna save my life like Superman

[Chorus]
Where do the good boys go to hide away, hide away?
I’m a good good girl who needs a little company
Looking high and low, someone let me know
Where do the good boys go to hide away, hide away?

[Bridge]
Tell me where the good boys go
Tell me where the good boys go
Tell me where the good boys go
Won’t somebody tell me, tell me?
Tell me where the good boys go
Tell me where the good boys go
Tell me where the good boys go
Tell me where the good boys go

[Chorus]
Where do the good boys go to hide away, hide away?
I’m a good good girl who needs a little company
Looking high and low, someone let me know
Where do the good boys go to hide away, hide away?

[Outro]
Hide away, hide away
Hide away, hide away
Looking high and low, someone let me know
Where do the good boys go to hide away, hide away?
