Everyone loves you, that’s no lie,
You light the room, you’re the sky.
Talented, funny, you shine so bright,
But I see more, beyond the light.
You notice me in quiet ways,
Tiny details, the things I say.
The way I dress , the quirks I keep,
Even my dreams, when I’m asleep.
(Chorus)
Why do you like me, tell me true?
I’m awkward, quiet, nothing like you.
Is it my songs? I’d write them all,
Or how I think, big or small?
You make friends, I stand alone,
You’re the party, I’m the unknown.
Yet you smile, and I feel whole,
As if you see into my soul.
Is it my work, or my fight?
The way I try to do things right?
Or is it love, simple and pure,
The kind that’s real, quiet, sure?
(Chorus)
Why do you like me, tell me true?
I’m awkward, quiet, nothing like you.
Is it my songs? I’d write them all,
Or how I think, big or small?
I love you, that much I know,
With every song, with every note.
But what I ask, what I need,
Why do you like someone like me?
