I Think You Are the Sweetest

i want to believe 
what you say is what you mean.
am i the only one you need?
 
sometimes it's hard to see
all the ways you love me.
you say i'm your one and only
and that you are all mine.
will that still be the case
when i'm not doing so fine?
 
i want to believe it will be
because you mean the world to me
and if you're giving me the truth
this could be the bloom of youth.
 
you say that you want me
and that i am your girl.
you want to explore me
see what goes on in my world.
will it still be the same,
this is all so insane to me.
will it stay the same?
how long can this heart stay aflame?
 
i crave ocean highways
and the taste of salt on your skin.
i'm tempted by all my old ways
but with you, there is no sin.
 
i crave the open road,
a hand to hold.
i want to feel that this is all
worth something more.
this is all worth so much more
than i can see right now.
 
love, oh so strange.
come inside just to derange.
thought my heart was sealed closed
but he got in unopposed.
 
he says im his one and only.
he says i'm his girl.
it's not just to me 
it's to the whole wide world.
 
he says he's all mine
and i suppose i'm all his.
maybe this could be something
worth more than anything before.
