First Grade in love with a pretty face
Boys chase the girls, the girls run away
I caught someone I remember the note she wrote me
High school passed with no regrets
All dates that I now forget
I'm so glad that it gets better
Waiting for...
Chorus:You, you, you, you
You are for me (repeats)
Sitting, waiting at the seventh floor
Playing guitar by a dorm room door
Cuz I thought she would bring me love
Infatuation is a silly mess
You wake and then you shake and then you second guess
But now I know it's true, because she wasn't
Chorus:You, you, you, you
You are for me (repeats)
Singing laughing on the cobblestones
London tourism far from home
Red wine almost gave someone her first kiss
Pretty blond but I ran away, Got so scared on the aeroplane
On the way to a concert across the ocean
I know she wasn't
Chorus:You, you, you, you
You are for me (repeats)
All the ones that weren't quite right
Disappear in this candlelight
I thought I loved before but I know it wasn't True
Because she wasn't you
Chorus:You, you, you, you
You are for me (repeats)
Singing in the sunset....
Chorus:You, you, you, you
You are for me (repeats)
