-------------------------------------------
you're beautiful in every form except you can't tell yourself this
i've pleaded and pleaded, yet your esteem seems to be unphased by it
when you cry, i die inside, confused and in agony
this little part of you rips and tears inside of me
i've loved before, but never someone as perfect as you
it seems as though the words i say go right through
by my side, you ease all the pain i endure
i'm not afraid to beg for more and more
i wistfully contemplate the gift that's been you
i assume i'm taking it for granted, and thus, try harder to reach you
i tell you perfection isn't true, but i see it when you smile
all i can do is pray and plead for this to last a little while
who would've thought you'd fall for a girl like me?
i'm so average, but baby, you're extraordinary
searching my brain for a logical answer to romance
this shot at a new world is my second chance
when your hopes pick up, the world is lifted from my shoulders
my shoulder blades ache as your tears are boulders
i can take the weight, yet i don't want you affected
heaven can wait, if you're going to hell, i'm willing to get rejected
every memory of your kiss replays in my head
pause and rewind, your lips touch mine, i'm no longer dead
lay down with me, never let go
this attraction is nowhere near shallow
