And if it all falls apart, I will know deep in my heart, the only dream that mattered had come true. In this life, I was loved by you.

You're so cute
When you act all cool
Other times
You just look like a fool

You wear your hat sideways
And your pants down low
When you tell a joke
You always put on a show

You're not too tall
And I love your eyes
Hopefully
You'll never tell me any lies

You act all tough
You act all strong
Because of that
I'll never be able to prove you wrong

When you pick me up
I hide my head
All because
My face turns bright red

You say you care
It's hard to see though
When all you joke about
Is your "little h**"

What I don't get
Is why you choose me
I'm not your type of girl
That's easy to see

But I don't care
If the odds are against us
It's in you
That I put all my trust

"You know you’re a writer if your friend tells you a heartbreaking story and your first reaction is – wow, that would make an incredible plot for a novel. You know you’re a smart writer if you manage to keep that reaction to yourself."
