The Right Guy

Life can be full of happiness With unconditional love and emotion But let’s get real that’s not what life is Life throws us on a rugged path at times One of the rugged paths is finding that right mate And we all can find in one way or another be able to relate Most of you girls want something like this: A guy who is cute, funny, outgoing, motivated, caring, unselfish, faithful, and understanding The one who calls you at night so you’re the last one he talks to The one who says good morning so he can be your first smile One who calls you beautiful in your darkest hour Damn do you girls not see the clock has been striking twelve Girls you always talking about I want that right guy But more than half the time you’re letting him pass you right by And next thing you know you’re with someone who makes you cry A guy who stripped you of your wings in which you can’t fly And no longer able to touch the clouds in the sky Then you hate your relationship because all he is known for is to cheat and lie And you lie on your bed at night and ask why? And sooner rather than later you end up saying goodbye Tears falling down your face As you try to erase Erase all the memories you had of him Erase the fact he did you wrong And then the right guy whom you let pass you by Sits right next to you gives you a hug and says “be strong” That’s all he says and gets up and walks away And the funny thing is you still don’t tell him to stay Little do you know that guy is on his knees every night and begins to pray That you will be able to open your eyes and see the light and stop pushing him away He knows who he is but when you look at him you think he is the same way It’s funny because girls always say then prove it and stop saying it He then says I have been, “haven’t you seen I haven’t quit” I’m just waiting for you to realize that and commit But like they say nice guys always finish last And you wonder why you don’t like your past A nice guy is a cover up phrase in which the world given us But our real title is the right guy in which I had to confess We are around every dark corner watching your mistakes But at the end of the day no matter who you’re with we comfort you and take away your cold shakes Maybe its time to open that message that you pushed in the cold dark corner and reply Because inside God has BEEN sent you the right guy © Jeremy Fennell
