Thing's I'll Never Have

I don't have good looks.

I don't have charms.

I don't have street smarts

but I got the books.

I can't bench press 308.

I can't lick my elbow.

I can't dance

but I can show you romance.

Life's too short

to write down.

There is not a perfect match

Because no one is perfect.

I'll never throw a punch.

I'll never leave your side.

I'll never not listen to you

because you are always right.

I wouldn't make you cry.

I wouldn't watch you die.

I wouldn't steal your heart

because I know it'll never be mine.

Your life's too short

to be tied down.

Looking for that someone

but he'll never come around.

So I will be just a friend

so I can be by your side.

Someone that will comfort you

when someone else makes you cry.

And though we may not speak as much

and may be miles apart.

I want you to always know

you will have my heart.

I will always love you.
