The Romantic

I have romanticized Every little thing that you've said To me I didn't mean it It just happens when you have An overactive imagination I see you in my dreams And it's so vivid That i swear it seems Like it really happened And i'm shocked When you don't sweep me off my feet In the morning Oh i just want someone to hold my hand And tell me i'm pretty and i'm sweet and i'm kind But i don't expect you to understand I'm just saying what's on my mind And i've been told it's hard for people like me To find someone who'll love me unconditionally But there must be someone out there I keep asking why, Why'd it have to be me, The romantic? I'm sorry, i just like you And your eyes are telling me It goes both ways I'm not asking much, Though i already know that I am loved It's hard to believe i'm anything When you don't say i am Cause i just want someone to hold my hand And tell me i'm pretty and i'm sweet and i'm kind But i don't expect you to understand I'm just saying what's on my mind And i've been told it's hard for people like me To find someone who'll love me unconditionally But there must be someone out there I am too deeply obsessed with having the perfect love With roses, and candles, and starlight, and you But will it ever be enough? no I am too deeply obsessed with having the perfect love With roses, and candles, and starlight, and you But it'll never be enough It's never enough I just want someone to hold my hand (i just want) And tell me i'm pretty and i'm sweet and i'm kind But i don't expect you to understand (hold my hand) I'm just saying what's on my mind And i've been told it's hard for People like me (i know it's hard to love me) To find someone who'll love me unconditionally (but try) But there must be someone out there Oh there must be someone out there
