You never been good with your words
I guess that all changed
On the day you met her and
Sometimes I don’t think she deserves
The lifts from the airport
The flowers, or holding her purse
Walking her home that first night
She broke down your walls,
And she wasn’t even trying
Might get mad and say there’s nothing wrong
And sometimes you’ll say the right thing
She don’t hear it at all
Well I’d like to think it’s true
When he says “I’m proud of you”
But it’s so damn hard to do
When I know her too well
When he says he loves a girl
She’s funny and kind
Her hearts on her sleeve,
But she’s speaking her mind
I wish it was easy to see what he sees
If it was that simple to make me believe
That he loves a girl
No matter the day
No matter the mess
Or the tears on her face
I can’t believe, he’s talkin’ ‘bout me
That I could be her
When he says he loves a girl
Mhmmmm
When he says he loves a girl
Mhmmmm
I know she’s so hard to convince
You’re trying your best but it ain’t sinking in
It’s not over her head, at times she’s a wreck
So go on and tell her again and again
And again until it’s true
When he says “I’m proud of you”
Know it’s so damn hard to do
‘Cause I know her too well
When he says he loves a girl
She’s funny and kind
Her hearts on her sleeve,
But she’s speaking her mind
I wish it was easy to see what he sees
If it was that simple to make me believe
That he loves a girl
No matter the day
No matter the mess
Or the tears on her face
I can’t believe, he’s talkin’ ‘bout me
That I could be her
When he says he loves a girl
Mhmmmm
When he says he loves a girl
I wish I could see her through his eyes
I try, I try
It’s so hard to do I don’t know why
I try, I try
