To the Boy~

I'll be your bad-acting-girl
If you will let me stay
I just want to be close to you
You've started to invade my thoughts
Unknowingly, you've made me want to
Reach out, and catch one curl
Brown and rusted, never like my dreams.
You're nothing like the guys I thought I'd like
So different but you're so much more;
Everything worth my time when I
Have none, all the things I didn't know I wanted.
You're nervous and strange and
You say my name funny
And I'd die to hear you say that name in
Such a nervous tone I'd know it's true
That I'd affected you
The same way you affect me, the world can see it
I've never met someone who fit so well
Someone I could let my soul seek
And I haven't even known you long
But you're becoming everything I need
I want
I could love you
If you'd give me the chance to
Let me be your one bad-acting-girl.

The "bad-acting-girl" thing comes from my theorized lack of acting skills.
