about

This is a cut I wrote and recorded in the fall of 2012...one of those that happened really quickly, and knocked me out at completion.

lyrics

You can pick my head up when I lay it on the ground
And I can lift your spirit when the world brings you down
No need to write a thank you note
Or send along a gift
Just know that when I think of you
It goes something like this

I think you're beautiful, extra cool, special, sweet and sensible
Makes me feel just like a fool, trying to follow all your rules,
You're a treat, an extra plus, the highest high, the perfect buzz
I could go on about this love
Cause words just ain't enough

You lift me til I touch the clouds when I'm feeling low
And I can carry you for miles when you're moving slow
No need to send a post card or give an extra kiss
Just know that when I think of you it rambles on something like this

I think you're beautiful, extra cool, special, sweet and sensible
Makes me feel just like a fool, trying to follow all your rules
You're a treat, an extra plus, the highest high, the perfect buzz
I could go on about this love
Cause words just ain't enough

I've spent countless mornings and many sleepless nights
Searching for the perfect words that say it all just right
Never mind romantic lines or the smiles that they may bring
Probably didn't need to say a thing

I think you're beautiful, extra cool, special, sweet and sensible
Makes me feel just like a fool, trying to follow all your rules
You're a treat, an extra plus, the highest high, the perfect buzz
I could go on about this love
Cause words just ain't enough
