 Verse
 I've been looking for a girl
 Who wanted something more than make-up and dresses
 She wouldn't care about hair styles nail files
 It just might take a while
 I've got all the time to wait
 I'm not afraid of being alone for awhile
 Cause I don't need no alibis pretty lies
 No need for compromise
 Chorus
 I want you / believe me
 I need you / deceive me
 I'm fading /don't leave me
 I'm begging / don't let me down
 Verse
 Then I saw you in the street
 And I just knew I had to make your aquaintance
 Something like an old friend start to end
 I could feel my heart start to mend
 Last night I dreamt that I had drowned
 Beneath the water on the floor of the ocean
 As I Lay among the shells and sand
 Your hand pulled me up to dry land
 Chorus
 Bridge
 It's almost funny when you're all alone for too long
 You start to feeling that there's something that you've done wrong
 When you find the one all the worlds corrected
 You never plan it out it's when you least expect it
 Now you're protected even respected
