I don't wanna be that poem girl.
You know that poem girl
The one who writes poems about every person she dates
Claiming that maybe this time it really was fate and not just her own stupid decisions
the girl who says her skin was as smooth as silk and his eyes were a forest of trees
and she is so in love with her
she will never let him leave
I don't wanna be that poem girl
who deletes old poems about people she doesn't want to remember
Who replaces brown eyes with green and then decides she misses the rhyme
I don't wanna be that poem girl
But maybe I just think your smile is a little brighter than hers
Your eyes a little softer than his
Your laugh is contagious
and your love feels better than the rest
and maybe i'm that poem girl
Who claims this time she got it right
This time she found the one who brings the most joy into her life
This time his eyes really do shine
and it's not just some rhyme for the poem
But this time i'm gonna be that poem girl
the one who doesn't lie
i'm not gonna claim your hand fits perfectly in mine your hand is really big
I'm not gonna claim to have loved you all along we didn't even talk for years
and i'm not gonna claim love at first sight you used to look like a nerd
but I used to look like a freak show
so no love at first sight was not involved
but as this love starts to evolve I
will write a thousand poems
I don't wanna be that poem girl
but here I am
writing a poem ....about you
