Lyrics
0:02I wanna tell you my feelings
0:06But I'm not good with words
0:07Sat by a smart girl in English
0:11And I cheated off her
0:13But I can strum a few chords
0:18And I learned to rhyme from George
0:23Straight out that 'Bama blue clear sky
0:26You roll my tide
0:28And after a couple beers
0:31I let you see what's inside
0:33Well girl I'm sober tonight
0:38You still make me nervous
0:40So I might not get this right
0:42All the Hallmark cards missed the mark
0:48And all the Walmart flowers were fallin' apart
0:52And I know my voice ain't nothin' special
0:55And this guitar's probably out of tune
0:57But baby I broke a hundred pencils
1:00Tryin' to write this song for you
1:02And I kinda hoped it'd make you cry
1:05If you don't love it you ain't gotta lie
1:08Just know that it's yours and so am I
1:24I didn't come from a family
1:27That showed how we felt
1:29I learned the art of pretending
1:32From Bibles and belts
1:34But you make me wanna make some kids
1:39Instead of sense and do it different than they did
1:44All the Hallmark cards missed the mark
1:49And all the Walmart flowers were fallin' apart
1:53And I know my voice ain't nothin' special
1:56And this guitar's probably out of tune
1:59But baby I broke a hundred pencils
2:01Tryin' to write this song for you
2:04And I kinda hoped it'd make you cry
2:06If you don't love it you ain't gotta lie
2:09Just know that it's yours and so am I
2:14So am I
2:36Love you more than I know how to
2:39Communicate
2:41And I will until we run out of
2:44Valentine's days
2:47All the Hallmark cards missed the mark
2:53And all the Walmart flowers were fallin' apart
2:57And I know my voice ain't nothin' special
3:00And this guitar's probably out of tune
3:03But baby I broke a hundred pencils
3:05Tryin' to write this song for you
3:08And I kinda hoped it'd make you cry
3:10If you don't love it you ain't gotta lie
3:13Just know that it's yours and so am I
3:18Said I kinda hoped it'd make you cry
3:20If you don't love it you ain't gotta lie
3:23Just know that it's yours and so am I
