A simple song
For a simple girl
With jet black hair
She put in the curl
She paints her nails
She paints her lips
She likes her drinks
But she only sips
She’ll make you laugh
She’ll make you smile
And she’ll hang around
For a little while
And my heart just stops
I must confess
When I see the girl
In the polka dot dress
Defenses up
Walls built high
She can’t let you in
And she won’t even try
Beyond those walls
Alone and scared
Someone else did her wrong
She wasn’t prepared
She said what you want
I’m not up to the task
But how would she know
She never bothered to ask
She says that
Her heart’s a mess
And she covers it up
With a polka dot dress
She is graceful
She is kind
And I’m grateful
For our time
You gotta
Big long life to live
You gotta lotta love
You wanted to give
Your feet stood steady
On the ground
Got ready to go
Just to be shut down
But just because
The feeling’s strong
That don’t mean
You did anything wrong
It’s not hard to fall
Or hard to doubt
But the truth is
Things don’t always work out
But my heart still stops
I must confess
When I see a girl
In a polka dot dress

Wish I Would Have Known

Heard you laugh again today
Shed a few more tears and said goodbye
Sad to see you found a way
Cause knowing you smile w/o me makes me cry
Didn’t you hear me say that I was sorry
Didn’t you hear me say that I was wrong
The nights and days
They slip away
And I wish I would have known
I never thought I would spend them all alone
I miss how we used to be
Before life came and wore us down
I gave up on you and me
And our love went crashing to the ground
Didn’t you hear me say that I was sorry
Didn’t you hear me say that I was wrong
The nights and days
They slip away
And I wish I would have known
I never thought I would spend them all alone
Walk the path I walked with you
Not sure what I expect to find
Never thought I’d think of you
Like all the other ones I left behind
Didn’t you hear me say that I was sorry
Didn’t you hear me say that I was wrong
The nights and days
They slip away
And I wish I would have known
I can’t believe our love has turned to stone
I never thought I would spend this all alone
