143

How many times have I called you

While you were working just to say

Left messages on your answering machine

About three or four times a day

There aren't many more ways

And words that I can't say

So I'll just say numerically

From my heart to you, 1-4-3

So many times I bought roses

Just to see that smile on your face (smile on your face, yeah)

I can't remember how many e-mails I sent you

Just to tell you 'bout my day

There aren't many more ways (more ways)

And words that I can't say

So I'll just say numerically

From my soul to you, 1-4-3

Girl you know you are so special to me

And you deserve to be treated exclusively

I treat you like Valentine's Day 365 a year

Make sure that everything you need will always be right here

Now I just refuse to be your typical ordinary

Run-of-the-mill, Garden Variety lover

I'll make sure everyday you live will be like Christmas Eve

I wanna make you feel fine just like a summer breeze

'Cause I just refuse to be your predictable average

Run-of-the-mill, Garden Variety lover

See sometimes words may get in the way

Of the things that you really, really mean to say

So I wanna take out this time to

Make sure that how I really feel gets through to you, yeah

'Cause listen, there aren't many more ways And words that I can't say

So I chose to tell you how I feel in a numerical way

Got so tired of trying to find the most complicated ways to say it to you

So I simplified and broke it down in 143

And that means I love you

Sugar, you know, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, oh, uh-huh
