Verse:
Red dress on a Sunday
White flowers in her hair
She laughs like a summer breeze
And kisses on a dare
She makes me wonder
Who I am
She makes me question
Where I stand
Chorus:
My mother always told me
That I would find the perfect boy someday
My father always told me
That I would need a man to keep me safe
Well they don't know what it's like to be me
To fall in love
With no boundaries
Verse:
We talk 'til the sun comes up
And blame it on the wine
Her eyes glisten like the stars
So passionate and kind
She makes me want to
Hold her close
She makes my heart beat
More than most
Chorus:
My mother always told me
That I would find the perfect boy someday
My father always told me
That I would need a man to keep me safe
Well they don't know what it's like to be me
To fall in love
With no boundaries
Bridge:
I know I should tell her
If I don't try
Then I'll never find out
Risk it all
For some closure
Lay my heart out
So I never wonder why
I live my life like a soldier
If I fall down
Then at least I tried
I need her to know
That I don't want to hide
Oh, no..
Chorus:
My mother always told me
That I would find the perfect boy someday
My father always told me
That I would need a man to keep me safe
Well they don't know what it's like to be me
To fall in love
So honestly
No, they don't know what it's like to be me
I fall in love
With no boundaries
