Inspiration

She said that she is not that pretty And she doesn't go to the gym or exercise She said that she's a little on the chubby side And she likes her burgers and French fries She said why to waste my time on her When there are supermodels look-alike all around She said that she's not like an angel in the sky Just a regular girl with her feet on the ground She said that there are lots of fishes in the sea That I should throw my hook in the water That I could find a nice wealthy girl Instead of wasting time on a janitor's daughter She said that she is not glamorous Nothing much here to please the eyes And she doesn't use makeup She's just natural and not hiding behind a disguise She said, that she's a thorn in the garden Lost in a world of beautiful things And she sounds like Harold Melvin and the blue notes If I should ever hear she tries to sing She said that life has not been a Bed of Roses She wasn't born with a golden spoon or token She doesn't have a smartphone And her nails are always broken And she never thought much about love and romantic stuff Men just tell the girl what they want to hear And once the girl lets her guards down After the men just disappear She said, she's content with what life brings And she doesn't minds being a lonely soul She got her parents to think off And they are getting old She said that I look like an honest guy And she's not the girl with a happy ending That I should look to another girl To talk to and start befriending She said that she don't know if she could love And it won't be fair to lead me on blindly And should stop wasting my time on her And move along quickly So I told her, to let me say my part I have been listening to her all the time And not I got a few things to say And get it off my mind You look distant and sad And I just wanted to get to know you You look like you carry the world on your shoulders And I wanted to help you carry it too And if you give me a chance to be your friend It would mean a lot to me If love is meant to be it would be But right now your friendship is good enough for me Just getting to know you That is all that I want to do You are beautiful, plain and simple Daffodils in a world of roses, red, yellow, and blue You are such an inspiration And many girls would learn a lot from you In a world of fading honestly You are not afraid to be true You write your own story Every day you write a new one And you won't believe it when I tell you To many girls, you are an inspiration
