The truth of loving her

Mommy said I'd love all boys,

But Mommy wasn't right.

I loved one boy for a long while,

But it didn't work out quite.

I found a new love, I swear it's true,

With all of the blue in the skies.

I didn't even stand a chance,

the second I looked her in the eyes.

Mommy said I'd love all boys,

But Mommy wasn't right.

I felt like my world was shaded too dark,

But my savior brought the light.

Her laughter chimes with the sound of bells,

Her eyes are brown and green

She acts like she's just so tough,

And her jokes are so obscene.

Everything that doesn't make sense,

Makes sense when she's around.

She has me falling headfirst into a freefall,

But I'll never touch the ground.

Mommy said I'd love all boys,

But Mommy wasn't right.

I can try to forget her and change my mind,

But her face is the last I see at night.
