I'm so good with words Essays, presentations, and speeches I can craft a sonnet and sell a watch But when I see you In all your blonde haired glory My tongue sticks to the roof of my mouth like peanut butter My heart pounds As if you've put the bass on high And those words, those beautiful words That flowed like the water of Niagara falls When it came to 5-7-5 and 4 score and seven years ago Dry up. My mind overloads with whether I should spout out the first thing that comes to mind Or try and catch you with my charm But it doesn't matter because my mouth won't respond Not until hours later when i'm home alone, and kicking myself for not saying a word Then finally the dam bursts And I know just what to say I feel my lips move They say hi, you're beautiful And I love you Words to woo a woman's heart I'm so good with words Essays, presentations and speeches But not when it counts

I'm so good with words Essays, presentations, and speeches I can craft a sonnet and sell a watch But when I see you In all your blonde haired glory My tongue sticks to the roof of my mouth like peanut butter My heart pounds As if you've put the bass on high And those words, those beautiful words That flowed like the water of Niagara falls When it came to 5-7-5 and 4 score and seven years ago Dry up. My mind overloads with whether I should spout out the first thing that comes to mind Or try and catch you with my charm But it doesn't matter because my mouth won't respond Not until hours later when i'm home alone, and kicking myself for not saying a word Then finally the dam bursts And I know just what to say I feel my lips move They say hi, you're beautiful And I love you Words to woo a woman's heart I'm so good with words Essays, presentations and speeches But not when it counts
