Take me home

" There's a shop down the street,

where they sell plastic rings,

for a quarter a piece, I swear it.

Yeah, I know that it's cheap,

not like gold in your dreams,

but I hope that you'll still wear it.

Yeah, the ink may stain my skin,

and my jeans may all be ripped.

I'm not perfect, but I swear,

I'm perfect for you.

..and there's no guarantee,

that this will be easy.

It's not a miracle ya need, believe me.

Yeah, I'm no angel, I'm just me,

but I will love you endlessly.

Wings aren't what you need, you need me.

There's a house on the hill,

with a view of the town,

and I know how you adore it.

So I'll work everyday,

through the sun, and the rain,

until I can afford it.

Yeah, your friends may think I'm crazy,

cause they can only see,

I'm not perfect, but I swear, I'm perfect for you.

..and there's no guarantee,

that this will be easy.

It's not a miracle ya need, believe me.

Yeah, I'm no angel, I'm just me,

but I will love you endlessly.

Wings aren't what you need, you need me.

Ink may stain my skin,

and my jeans may all be ripped.

I'm not perfect, but I swear,

I'm perfect for you.

..and there's no guarantee,

that this will be easy. (This will be easy)

It's not a miracle ya need, believe me. (Won't you believe me?)

Yeah, I'm no angel, I'm just me,

but I will love you endlessly.

Wings aren't what you need, you need me. (You know you need me)

(I know you need me)

You need me,

(I know you need me)

You need me,

(I know you need me)

There's a shop down the street,

Schnell wischte ich mir die Tränen weg, die sich einen Weg über meine Wangen gebahnt hatten. Dann nahm ich aus der Schachtel einen Plastikring: "Harry gab mir den hier, genau wie in dem Lied. Er fragte mich so, ob ich seine Freundin sein möchte und selbstverständlich sagte ich ja. Bei Harry fühlte ich mich sicher, ich war glücklich. Wir verbrachten die ganze Nacht draussen unter dem Sternenhimmel und redeten oder schwiegen. Und das war der Moment in meinem leben von dem ich zu 100% sagen kann, dass ich glücklich war." Lisa schniefte in ihr Taschentuch und schluchzte dann laut: "Und er hat dir dann den ring geschenkt und dir ein Lied geschrieben, und-", sie brach in Tränen aus, "Das ist ja so romantisch!"
