lyrics

I’ve seen you look perfect, I have been amazed
In awe from every agle, without a flaw for days
If there were competitions for who could turn a head
You would be a champion, but I prefer instead

I love you when your hair is out of place
When there’s a laugh line on your face
When you’re surprised, confused a bit off balance
I love you when you’re figuring it out
That your sweater’s inside out
When you are lost, intrigued or face a challenge
When you’re not at your best, that’s when I love you

I’ve seen you shine like diamonds in something that reveals
In clothes that cost a fortune, you claim they were a steal
I’ve seen your face in fashion, a softly painted glow
They might prefer perfection, but I want you to know

I love you for each freckle on your cheek
And if you stutter when you speak
To me it sounds like it’s a song you’re singing
I love you on a Sunday in your sweats
When your hair’s a little wet
When you’re sarcastic, wicked, twisted, stinging
When you aren’t at your best, that’s when I love you

I’m not saying not to try, I love it when you fly
I’m just saying when you hit the ground you hit it running…
