I'm looking for the perfect match
Or simply someone to attach
My heart to, who won't run away--
A damsel who will save the day.
The girl I seek must be aloof
Her change of heart will stand as proof
That courtly gestures never fail
And in the end love will prevail.
Chorus:
I'm a hopeless romantic
Ready now to win my prize
A hopeless romantic
As good as all the other guys
Any girl will do just fine
If I can claim her love as mine
A kindly word will be the clue,
And I will stick to her like glue.
I've met a girl who's warm and coy
Her smile alone has brought me joy.
She might be dense, obtuse and thick,
But she's the one I'm going to pick.
And now I've chosen, I can tell
That things are going to work out well.
OK, she might not fit the bill,
But with some help, I think she will.
Chorus
The fact our values don't align
Could never make her less divine,
For she is true and she is fair
No other woman can compare.
The more I love the more I fear
This love I love will disappear.
This act of love consumes my soul;
I feel as if I'm in control.
Chorus
Today she said I'm just her friend,
But she'll learn better in the end;
Cause friendship wasn't in the plan--
The plan was that I'd be her man.
I just won't take the answer no.
I'll follow her where she may go,
Till she gives in and takes my hand
And falls in love the way I planned.
