girl you know I want you

but those other boys, they want you too

and I know I'll never hold your hand

but I still dream at night


try to take it slow, try to find the right words to tell you


jealousy is such an ugly deal

but they way they look at you with those eyes

makes me want to die

I know you're taking it all in

happiness is such a cruel thing

only those who get it get it right

and honey, you got it tonight

I swear, you got me too


girl, you're like a poem or a song

you're stuck in my head all day

you're beauty and grace personified

and it's all okay


try to take it in, try to make it last forever


animosity's an ugly deal

but they way they look at you with those eyes

makes me want to die

I know you're taking it all in

loneliness is a blessing in a curse

and I think about you all the time

hold you nearest to my heart

I swear, it's not a thing

I swear, it's just a fling
