Love That Changed Me
I said, "You look beautiful to me."
She replied, "That’s not a good thing to say."
I said, "I never lie, you know."
She replied, "That’s not the truth anyway."
I said, "Maybe it’s a lie, but just listen."
She replied, "Time’s short, so speak your heart."
I said, "I think about you all the time."
She replied, "You’re just wasting time from the start."
I said, "I love you, can’t you see?"
She replied, "That’s wrong — it can’t be right."
I said, "Then make me right, show me how."
She replied, "What do you mean by that now?"
I said, "Make me the way I used to be,
Before I fell for you and lost the real me."
