Self Esteem

I've got a one way ticket to a party
She's the only one I want invited
Took me long enough to put the pen to the paper
Got a brand new suit just to pay it off later
She's got a vibe like a steam train
Groovin' through in the shine or the rain
And I know she knows I'm dreamin' if I think I've got a chance
Spent an hour in my room just learning how to dance

Every move she makes is pullin' threads in her blue jeans
Baby please just tell me why you say what you don't mean now
Everything she sees in me is gonna turn around
Cause every time I see her babe my heart it hits the ground
And I never thought I'd get a chance to see her move up close
Never mind that now because my heart's full and it knows that I
Never wanna see her take a ride and lose herself
I never wanna let my baby dance with someone else

I like it when she's got her hair tied up
I try to clear my throat but my mouth dried up
I see the red on her lips and I know it's over now
Got my hands on her hips and I can't remember how
The slow sway it hurts my head
I think I missed about every word she said
Does she know that I love her like an actress?
If she did why would she come here in that dress?

She's got a self esteem
That puts my confidence to shame
She's only nineteen
I never was the same
I want her self esteem and she took me by the hand
"Fame's not all that it seems but aren't you in that funk band?"

Every move she makes is pullin' threads in her blue jeans
Baby's got a smile I never saw in magazines
With words that heal my heart and hands that make me burn
It's taken me some time but now I'm here I'm glad I earned
A heart to call my own standing in the sun
Now the doubt is gone we can dance as one
Together in my view loving in good health
I never wanna let my baby dance
With someone else
With someone else
With someone else
With someone else
(With someone else)
