If I Were Good Enough |
I can�t put into words, That I love you more and more, I can�t fit the letters together, That say it�s you I adore, The vowels don�t start to form, To make my thoughts complete, The things I say sound uneven and coarse, Not refined and neat. How can I possibly say What I want you to know? The ideas won�t leave my heart � They just don�t seem to want to go. Oh, sometimes I try so hard To write a verse for you, I always tear it up though, �Cause it isn�t good enough to do. I�ll never write a thing, That you can be real proud of, Or have a poem of mine framed to hang on the wall And always love, But if I were good enough, So folks would say: �Not bad!� I�d have some nerve to shout�.. �. You�re the sweetest mother a girl ever had! |
