Sharp, scraping across
The lines of black and of grey
Removing makeup.

It wasn't fair! No!
You were wonderful, and yet
She couldn't have you.

There comes a time when I give up
The charade I've been trying to lead
I lean over and raise eyebrows
And they just laugh. Oh please.

Then she really looked
And it was like she'd never
Seen his eyes before.

I want someone who can laugh at himself
I want someone who can be shy about being cute
I want someone who has been waiting for me, and honestly keeping himself only mine

I want someone who can stand up for what's right and stand up! stand up for Jesus!
I want someone who can sing and play 
I want someone whose heart is as musically intertwined as mine is

I want someone that's absolutely crazy
I want someone so crazy that I can love him to death and it won't drive him nuts
I want someone who is prepared for life and knows where his path is headed

I want someone with confidence
I want someone who wouldn't ever make me feel uncomfortable 
I want someone with compassion and passion and with the past behind him

I want someone who could ****** his nose just by stepping on a pencil but who can be tough as steel about ripping off bandaids
I want someone who could be that one dad that all the other kids wish was their dad because he's so much fun
I want someone that isn't looking for me at this age
I want someone who can wait if I need him to

I want someone who wears black when he's depressed
               white when he's fine
                                and green when he feels epic

I want someone who can pray hard when he needs something
I want someone who can be serious when he needs to be
I want someone who wants this as much as me.

I'm just kind of filled
With regret, every time
I think about you.

The wind blows on the prairie
The wind blows on the moor
The wind blows in the ferry
None compare to your speech before.

I'm afraid of you
Because I shouldn't, and then
Because you want me to.

It just makes me sick
Inside where no words will come
And nothing makes sense.

It was just perfect
And then you laughed at her joke
It was beautiful.
