lyrics

Why was she waiting on a big idea?
Why was she waiting on a matter of course?
She wanted something that was more than just friends
When it came to my attention I was happy of course

She told me tales of a life of lost love
She told me stories of betrayal and lies
She wanted something that would make up for that
When it came to my attention we both ended up crying

She would never be free with a heart so blue
She wouldn't give up on me, but couldn't keep on trying
She told me I would make her dreams come true
Since it came to my attention I cannot stop smiling

She let me know when she bit her red lips
She let me know when she started to stare
She wanted something that would shake her for sure
When it came to my attention I was already there

She would never be free with a heart so blue
She wouldn't give up on me, but couldn't keep on trying
She told me I would make her dreams come true
Since it came to my attention I cannot stop smiling
