All the efforts you made to make yourself look so beautiful that day
And all of it washed away in a few minutes in that rain
Then you laughed so nervously outside my door
And that's when I saw how truly beautiful you are

You could paint a thousand smiles on your lips
But all I want is to hear you whisper my name
You could wear the most incredible dress
But all I need is your incredible eyes looking my way

You could put on those sexy high heel boots and walk by me
But what I really remember are the moments when you dance in tennis shoes
You could tell me all your plans for the future
And all I want to know is if you could see me there too

You could tell me all of your beliefs and thoughts
And what I really want is to share this heart with you
You can tell everyone loudly how you feel
But I enjoy the quiet moments when you're afraid but real

You can push and shove and knock things over and yell
And I am ready. Stronger than any man you've ever known
I can take it. I can pin this tumbleweed and hold her still
And gently love you and understand.

I could paint a picture of a perfect man
But there is sincerity in my imperfections
I could wear a clown's hat and be a foolish jester
But what you need to see is this king's heart in me

I could put on that tux and act a fool for everyone
But what I really want is to go to the mountain with you far away
I could tell you how I plan to turn the world on its head
But I would settle for giving you the world instead

I could tell you how I don't have any plans to change you
But I don't want to waste time on details; I just want to be with you
I can drop everything and tell the whole world to take a hike
But I just want to stand in the rain and kiss you.
