Could she learn to love me the way I am?
Reckless and hopeless, lacking forms of better judgment
She's been the one that I'm not sure I've waited for
But one day she just walked through the door
I never found the right words
Always had something to say
I've been so gone for so long
To let it slip away again
I think I got it all back
Anything and everything
That I gave away
In the time it took
For me to fall in love
I've been relying on my friends
And all the time we spend
Broke but believing
That someday this will all get better
I've got my problems
Ironic good luck
And too many best friends I can trust
A tendency to give a little more than I get back
It's a curse until it comes around
And I catch you on the front porch singing
I never found the right words
Always had something to say
I've been so gone for so long
To let it slip away again
I think I got it all back
Anything and everything
That I gave away
In the time it took
For me to fall in love
The night we stayed awake
Until the sun came up
Sipping on champagne
And I kissed you
As we slept there on the floor, I know
You were my diamond in the rough
With any luck, I'll see you tomorrow
I repeat my failures
When I forget the past
And there's nothing on my mind
Except for when I'll see her
All I know is I think I can breathe again
And maybe someday, you could be my girl
