[00:23.54]I want to be the boy to warm your mothers heart
[00:25.98]Im so scared to take you away
[00:28.35]
[00:29.35]I tried to win her over right from the start
[00:31.84]But something always got in the way
[00:35.27]Weve been sitting in your backyard for hours
[00:37.83]But she wont even come out and say hi
[00:41.14]While my mother baked a little cake for you
[00:43.89]And even dreaded when you said goodbye
[00:46.32]
[00:47.13]What kind of cartwheels do I have to pull
[00:49.88]What kind of joke should I lay on her now
[00:52.31]
[00:58.61]Im inclined to go finish high school
[01:01.36]Just to make her notice that Im around
[01:04.23]
[01:21.92]Well nothing I come up with seems to work
[01:24.35]It feels like everything I say is a lie
[01:26.54]
[01:27.66]And never have I felt like such a jerk
[01:30.16]Im afraid to even open my eyes
[01:33.34]Because I really dont want her to judge me
[01:36.21]I want her to really know who I am
[01:38.83]
[01:39.54]And then and only then will she love me
[01:42.10]Well at least that was the plan
[01:45.03]If ever a boy needed a holiday
[01:47.34]
[01:48.09]If ever a girl needed someone to hold
[01:50.58]
[01:57.20]I just hope I dont act the same way
[01:59.33]By the time that I get that old
[02:02.07]
[02:31.75]What kind of cartwheels do I have to pull
[02:34.19]What kind of jokes should I lay on her now
[02:36.81]
[02:43.61]Im inclined to go finish high school
[02:45.54]
[02:46.23]Just to make her notice that Im around
[02:49.60]
[03:06.39]I never said I was the heir to a fortune
[03:09.19]I never claimed to have any looks
[03:11.69]
[03:12.26]But these kind of things must be important
[03:15.12]Because somebody ripped out my page
[03:17.99]In your telephone book
[03:19.30]
[03:23.42]I want to warm her heart
