I don’t think that passenger seat Has ever looked this good to me He tells me about his nights And I count the colors in his eyes
He’ll never fall in love he swears As he runs his fingers through his hair I’m laughing ’cause I hope he’s wrong
And I don’t think it ever crossed his mind He tells a joke, I fake a smile But I know all his favorite songs
And I could tell you his favorite color’s green He loves to argue, born on the seventeenth His sister’s beautiful, he has his father’s eyes And if you asked me if I love him, I’d lie
He looks around the room Innocently overlooks the truth Shouldn’t a light go on? Doesn’t he know that I’ve had him memorized for so long?
He sees everything black and white Never let nobody see him cry I don’t let nobody see me wishing he was mine
I could tell you his favorite color’s green He loves to argue, born on the seventeenth His sister’s beautiful, he has his father’s eyes And if you asked me if I love him, I’d lie
He stands there, then walks away My God, if I could only say, “I’m holding every breath for you.”
He’d never tell you, but he can play guitar I think he can see through everything but my heart First thought when I wake up Is “My God, he’s beautiful.” So I put on my make-up And pray for a miracle
Yes, I could tell you his favorite color’s green He loves to argue, oh, and it kills me His sister’s beautiful, he has his father’s eyes And if you asked me if I love him If you asked me if I love him I’d lie
