Cherish
Precious Words
You’re so mean
But you look so good
My brain says I shouldn’t
But my heart says I should
My mother passed down these precious words
“If he bullies, he loves me!”

I see you over there
I didn’t mean to stare
But you should cover your heart up in front of me
I’m seeing right through it

Every time that we speak
You laugh it off and act a freak
But you should cover your heart up in front of me
I’m seeing right through it

You’re the boy next door
You’re the rise and fall
Of my heart, and yours
