Songtext In love with a girl Gavin Degraw

In love with a girl

So many people gonna say that they want you
To try to get you thinking they really care
But there is nothing like the warmth of the one
Who has put in the time
And you know is gonna be there

Back your border when she knows someone crossed it
Don't let nobody put you down who you're with
Take the pain of protecting your name
From the crutch to the cane
To the high wire

Chorus
I'm in love with a girl who knows me better
Fell for the woman just when I met her
Took my sweet time when I was bitter
Someone understands
And she knows how to treat a fella right
Gives me that feeling every night
Wants to make love when I want to fight
Now someone understands me
I'm in love with a girl

Out the many broken back doors and windows
Through the valley of the love of the lost
Is a hole that has cut through the souls
Fallen down from the tones
Without reading innuendos

And they found inner peace for the moment
The moment was over in time
Then it's gone
The hit and run
The drifter's fun
Has a short life

Chorus

Bridge
I want to tell you
What you do
To thank you
Practiced what you preach
And now I know
There's nothing we can't reach
Cause a heart can't erase
Once it's found a place
To be warm and welcome
To be held and sheltered

Chorus
