I'M Not Him

I know you been hurt.
I know the last relationship 
didn't work.
I know your ex was a jerk.
I can be your Captain Kirk,
I can be your hero and I can 
show you the stars.
Your a diamond, I want to let 
you shine but first I gotta get 
you out of the dark.
I don't want to break your 
heart.
I knew you was something else 
from the start.
Your smile set you apart
And your eyes made the spark-
