When you look real close you can see real good |
|
You can see the imperfections |
|
Now that we know the crooked and the straight |
|
We can love in real completion |
|
It's a danger to love for tomorrow |
|
It's a danger to love for the better |
|
But if it's not there, it's just not there |
|
With the things that really matter |
|
Taking it just the way that it is |
|
I'm taking it at face value |
|
Things can look better in the distance |
|
But that not the way I want to love you |
|
I want to love you that close |
|
I want to love you that close |
|
I want to love you that close |
|
I'm taking it just the way that it is |
|
Opinion's will fly back and forth |
|
And to disagree can be treason |
|
But you have loved my stronger side |
|
And I have loved the reasons |
|
Takin' it just the way that it is |
|
I'm takin' it at face value |
|
Things can look better in the distance |
|
But that's not the way I want to love you |
|
I've been drinking my coffee from a china cup |
|
I've been feeling holy and better |
|
In a borrowed apartment in Boston |
|
I sat down and wrote you this love letter |
