Precious

"Nice to meet you, hi, my name is Joe, how do you do?"
She said, "I'm Bekah, my good sir, I am well. How 'bout you?"
I said, "I'm doin' quite alright, but I've just got this nagging feeling
That I'd like to take you out. I find you quite appealing."

She grinned and said, "your words (as pleasant as they are)
Leave much to be desired, how are you with a guitar?"
I said, "My lass I know but a few simple chords."
She handed me the tool and told me, "Do your worst."
And I said

If you're a princess, I'm prince climbing the tallest tower to find you
If you're team captain then I'm hoping you'd pick me
If you're Emma Stone I've got my pick of Andrew Garfield or a Gosling
And if you're a gem then that must make me a jeweler
'Cause you're precious to me

As if there's any need to say, the chorus worked, the job was done
Went on a couple dates, just to get some one-on-one
A few dates down the road, as I'm walking her home
I pulled out the old guitar and sang this poem

If you're an Oscar then I'm Leo, excited to hold you for the first time
If you're on a road trip I'm along for the ride
If you get stuck on a roller coaster then I'd hope I'd get stuck with you
And if you're a ring, then I guess that makes me Sméagol
'Cause you're precious to me

And though I don't know the future
I sure would like to take a chance on you
That word, "potential"
I'd love to use it like you want me to
We've got potential

If you need a friend, I'll be the best darn friend you ever could imagine
If you're blue I'll warm you to another hue
If you're just feeling like yourself, that's something I would be okay with
'Cause if you are you then I can just be me
And you're precious to me
