Pick me

I know I’m not all that pretty
I might not even be cool
But I’m the one you can run to
when your heart’s breaking in two
And I’m not all that athletic
I’m not a painter, nor a cook
I can’t but you a new car
And I can’t bring you on tour
But please, honey please… pick me

It’s not like I am begging
I’m just trying to make you see
That even if I’m not like her
I can be just as good
I know you better than I know me
And I know you’ll say the same
So why aren’t you here with me
Why are you holding on to a dream?
But please honey, please… pick me

It’s the hardest choice you’ll ever make
But it’ll last ‘til end of time
‘cause if you pick me I won’t leave
But you know that she will
So just take my hand a walk away
It’ll be easier from afar
I promise your heart will feel lighter
When we’re alone in the dark
So please, honey please … pick me

The years went by in no time
We’re as happy as can be
Two kids and a house in a small town
It’s just like living the dream
So thank you honey for picking me
