I Want To Be The Boy To Warm Your Mothers Heart Lyrics

I Want To Be The Boy To Warm Your Mothers Heart

I want to be the boy to warm your mothers heart

 Im so scared to take you away

 I tried to win her over right from the start

 But something always got in the way

 Weve been sitting in your backyard for hours

 But she wont even come out and say hi

 While my mother baked a little cake for you

 And even dreaded when you said goodbye

 What kind of cartwheels do I have to pull?

 What kind of joke should I lay on her now?

 Im inclined to go finish high school

 Just to make her notice that Im around

 Well nothing I come up with seems to work

 It feels like everything I say is a lie

 And never have I felt like such a jerk

 Im afraid to even open my eyes

 Because I really dont want her to judge me

 I want her to really know who I am

 And then, and only then will she love me

 Well at least that was the plan

 If ever a boy needed a holiday

 If ever a girl needed someone to hold

 I just hope I dont act the same way

 By the time that I get that old

 I never said I was the heir to a fortune

 I never claimed to have any looks

 But these kind of things must be important

 Because somebody ripped out my page 

 In your telephone book

 I want to warm her heart
