There's a shop down the street
Where they sell plastic rings
0:14 to 0:21 For a quarter a piece, I swear it.
Yeah, I know that it's cheap
Not like gold in your dreams
0:21 to 0:29 But I hope that you'll still wear it.
Yeah, the ink may stain my skin
0:29 to 0:36 And my jeans may all be ripped.
I'm not perfect, but I swear
0:36 to 0:45 I'm perfect for you.
And there's no guarantee
0:45 to 0:51 That this will be easy.
0:51 to 0:59 It's not a miracle you need, believe me.
Yeah, I'm no angel, I'm just me
0:59 to 1:06 But I will love you endlessly.
1:06 to 1:15 Wings aren't what you need, you need me.
1:15 to 1:20 Instrumental
There's a house on the hill
With a view of the town
1:20 to 1:28 And I know how you adore it.
So I'll work everyday
Through the sun, and the rain
1:28 to 1:36 Until I can afford it.
Yeah, your friends may think I'm crazy
1:36 to 1:42 Cause they can only see
