HEART SMART

Have you ever been in love with someone who's flaws and shortcomings always seemed to get in their way? But you love them so accept them the way they are flaws and all. That's what I was thinking of when I wrote this.

According to a test my brain's only worth fifty cents.
I don't know much but I've got a book and some common sense.
I don't know much but I know that I love you.
You know my love is true.

I don't do well in school but I pass with straight cs.
When you and I put our heads together we can find a way to have fun.
You get a rope. I'll get a tire. we can tie it to a branch and swing from the trees.

If you put a math problem in front of me it'll go over my head.
I'll wish I was dead. OK, I'm not a smart guy.
But you love me. That makes me feel like I can fly.

Things don't come to me with ease.
I don't know how to show you how I feel
but my shirts have hearts on the sleeves.

I love you because you love me.
When I'm with you I don't have to be anything special.
I'm enough just being me.
