About a Girl

Come close now, whisper, secret
A story about a girl.
No, you don't need to know what her name is,
But I wrote about her before.
I wish that I would figure it
Tucked down deep in her pockets.
She'd light me up, let me swing from her lips
Like a circus show.

This ain't a show, no
It's a song for a girl.
She's making my head spin,
Making me slur my words.
This is a song about a girl.
This is a song about love,
Love, la la la love.
I won't forget her name.
I'll always love her the same, my love
Love, la la la la la la love.
This is all for you.

Strike the match, burn me down
'Til I'm nothing.
Like a vision,
She swims through the sheets on the mattress.
She sets me on fire through the afterglow
Like a firework show.

This ain't a show, no
It's a song for a girl.
She's making my head spin,
Making me slur my words.
This is a song about a girl.
This is a song about love,
Love, la la la love.
I won't forget her name.
I'll always love her the same, my love
Love, la la la la la la love.
This is all for you.

If you want promises,
Baby, I got 'em.
Bought a plastic ring if you want it.
'Cause we're growin' up, girl
But damn, still young.
If you jump, we can fall.
If you jump, we can fall in love
Love, la la la love.
I won't forget her name,
Always love her the same, my love.
Love, la la la la la la love.
This is all for you.

Oh, my love, this is all for love.
La la la la la la love.
This is all you
