The song that I sing says what I've wanted to hear
That everything's alright and there's nothing to fear
That they tears that I've shed were to make me stronger
And that you'll be here with me forever and longer
You were always there when I cried myself to sleep
Holding me to your heart so I could hear it beat
You asked me to stop crying because it hurt you as well
You know what I'd gone through was a living Hell
You've changed your favorite songs to what all of mine are
And you're going to teach me the "proper" way to drive my car
You have tried to write with me but you claim you "just suck"
I THINK WE SHOULD DUCT TAPE PILLOWS ONTHE FRONT OF PICK-UP TRUCKS
We watch that lovey-dovey movie just for theHell of it
And if you say you're Landon again, I'll say you're full of shit
Fine, I'll agree thatI'm a moderate Jamie
Because, just like her, I needed someone to save me
We've already decided what our house plans are going to be like
From the "trampoline in the kitchen" to the "garage full of bikes"
I've known you forever but just learned your middlename
And one thing I've never heard before, "Your pain is my pain"
That night you saw me cry you looked like I was broken
I'd locked myself inside a place that no one could ever open
But I know this is in your pocket as it is being read
Now I go to sleep smiling at your pillow on my bed
For the first time in my life, I feel like I am the world
Always having you here with me, not ditched for being "just some girl"
You know me, it'll take me forever to say what I want to
BUT "I don't see what anyone else can see in anyone else but you"
Someday, I promise, I'll tell you what I want to say
Like how you are my ONLY HOPE and chased all of my ghosts away
