He shouldn’t love me
Cause my clammy hands

He shouldn’t love me
Cause the way I talk

He shouldn’t love me
Cause my crazed eyes

He shouldn’t love me
Cause I can’t just walk

He shouldn’t love me
Cause I am hard to control

He shouldn’t love me
Cause I’m weak

He shouldn’t love me
Cause I’m full of crap

He shouldn’t love me
Cause I’m bleak

But even so
He loves me

He loves me
For my soft fingers

He loves me
For my lisp

He loves me
For my green eyes

He loves me
For my happy skip

He loves me
Cause he can’t keep up

He loves me
Cause I’m kind

He loves me
For the stories I tell

And I love him
Cause he’s mine
