Minor Leagues Projections Of A Person
Well, you're not everything I wanted, but what I want
is what I wouldn't want you to be
And you're not everything I've dreamt of, but you're
everything that's ever cost me sleep
You didn't capture my imagination, but you crowd my
thoughts
And for the first time in my life all I need is all
I've got
'Cause I'm always in obsession with projections of a
person
And when that girl becomes reality impressions always
worsen
But you, I'm finding that your imperfections are still
perfect
So if I fall in love with you, it always will be worth
it
It is worth it
You're more naïve than me, but you sin a lot more often
But you're just like me, 'cause you're stressed out
even when you've got no problems
You wear the smile of a saint and the smirk of a cynic
You've got a failure's fear of falling even though
you're always winning
'Cause I'm always in obsession with projections of a
person
And when that girl becomes reality impressions always
worsen
But you, I'm finding that your imperfections are still
perfect
So if I fall in love with you, it always will be worth
it
It is worth it
Well, I could say 'I love you,' but I don't know what
that means
I've put it in words for other girls, but I never
really believed
And yeah there's 56 things about you that I could say
won my heart
But I know for sure you're so much more than the sum of
your parts
Well, you're stubborn as hell but indecision bursts you
into tears
And you're only 21, but you're wise beyond your years
'Cause I'm always in obsession with projections of a
person
And when that girl becomes reality impressions always
worsen
But you, I'm finding that your imperfections are still
perfect
So if I fall in love with you, it always will be worth
it
It is worth it
