You could send me flowers. 
Text me poetry for hours. 
Even write a sappy song, 
I’m not saying it’d be wrong. 
You could call me when I’m sick 
To chat about a chick flick, 
Then tell me something tough 
But I won’t believe it’s love 
Until you prove it to my dad. 
Oh yeah 

[Chorus] 
‘Cause he’s already loved me for better and for worse 
He makes it easy to identify a jerk 
He knows how I like make-believe 
He always helps me see what I really need. 

[Verse 2] 
You could say I’m like no other 
Become best buddies with my brother 
Notice when I cut my hair 
Let me win when it’s not fair 
Then pretend that you don’t care. 
Promise me you’ll always be there 
But your word is not enough 
And I won’t believe it’s love 
Until you prove it to my dad 

[Chorus] 
‘Cause he’s already loved me for better and for worse 
He makes it easy to identify a jerk 
He knows how I like make-believe 
He always helps me see what I really need. 

[Bridge: Francis Chan] 
I haven’t been perfect but I’ve done my best 
Through your good times, your bad times, your PMS 
With boys sometimes you lose your common sense 
So I’m always going to throw in my two cents 
They’ll tell you all these things that you want to hear. 
They’ll pretend that they love you but they really don’t care 
But I taught you how to walk and I’ve cried with you 
I taught you how to drive! I had to ride with you! 
When your hair looked bad I even lied to you! 
You’re mine until the day I walk the aisle with you. 
And if some guy wants to try for you, 
And he thinks he can provide for you. 
I’ll let go. I’ve just got to know he, too, would die for you. 

[Chorus] 
‘Cause he’s already loved me for better and for worse 
He makes it easy to identify a jerk 
He knows how I like make-believe 
He always helps me see what I really need.
