Drowning In Your Desert of Lies

Tell me all about her Is she beautiful? Is she simple in her complex way? Is she all you want and need? Is she your everything? Tell me is she beautiful? Is she that pretty picture in your mind? The one with whom you spend your time? I bet she’s perfect Is she the sun, the moon, the night, the day? Is she the dream you wish would never go away? Tell me is she beautiful? Tell me is she special? Is she perfect in her imperfections? Is she fragile like a rose? But yet so unbreakable Tell me is she beautiful? Is she the reason you can’t hide The smile that’s stretched from eye to eye? I bet you love her Is the one who holds your heart? The one who lies within your arms? I bet she’s wonderful Tell me am I beautiful? Am I strong in my weak-hearted way? Tell me that I’m worth it If I fall on my knees and cry Will you stay?
