I Want To Be The Boy To Warm Your Mother`s Heart Lyrics

I Want To Be The Boy To Warm Your Mother`s Heart lyrics

I want to be the boy, to warm your mother’s heart
I’m so scared
to take you away
I tried to win her over right from the start
But
something always got in the way
We’ve been sitting in your backyard
for hours
But she won’t 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?
I’m inclined to go finish high
school
Just to make her notice that I’m around

Well nothing I
came up with seems to work
It feels like everything I say is lie
And
never have I felt like such a jerk
I’m afraid to even open my
eyes
Because I really don’t 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 don’t act the same way
By the
time I get that old

What kind of cartwheels do I have to pull?
What
kind of joke should I lay on her now?
I’m inclined to go finish high
school
Just to make her notice that I’m around

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
