i don't have pretty pictures of me all dressed up and fine
i don't have skinny legs or skinny arms or any time
i never capitalize my I's because they just stand for me
and nobody ever capitalizes 'me'
except for maybe you
i have never had a boyfriend and maybe never will
i don't like girly girls or pencil skirts or frills
but i wore a dress today with tights and boots to match
because you see this sunken boat wants to be a catch
i capsized long ago you know i drowned in my own mind
there were so many things floating around up there that I could not leave behind
i wanted to go somewhere then, somewhere far far away
but that was then and then no one had said to me what you say
i love it when you twinkle it makes me think of bells
it conjures up music and anthems to some romance scene out of hell
but that was where i was going until you came along
so here i am and here you are inside of my own song
