about

This is a song about waiting for True Love and knowing when the right one comes along by the Music itself. I love the idea in the song that that He gives Her Faith, and She gives Him Courage. She needs someone to Trust and He needs someone to Rise Up for.

lyrics

I bet that when you kiss her
Her lips they feel like velvet
I bet that when you touch her
Her skin it feels like silk

I bet that she’s a great girl
I bet that she’s your whole world
But you know that it will never work
‘Cause she will never be me

I bet that when you hold her
She’s got stars in her eyes
But in your heart you know it isn’t right

I bet you’d like to settle down
And ask her to marry you
But you can’t see your future in her eyes
‘Cause she will never be me

She will never be me
She can’t love you half as much as I do
She’ll never be me
She can’t give you all the Courage that I do
She’ll never be me
You won’t notice when she starts to walk away
But you will notice when you don’t hear me play
No she will never be me

One day you’re going to need me to be there when you call
But if you walk away now,
Then who’s going to catch you when you fall?

You bet that when I kiss him
His lips they feel like velvet
You bet that when I touch him
His skin it feels like silk

He thinks that I’m a great girl
He thinks that I’m his whole world
But I know that it will never work
‘Cause he will never be you

You bet that when he holds me
I’ve got stars in my eyes
But in my heart I know it isn’t right

You bet I’d like to settle down
If he asked me to marry him
But I can’t see my future in his eyes
No he will never be you

He will never be you
He can’t love me half as much as you do
He’ll never be you
He can’t give me all the Faith that you do
He’ll never be you
He won’t notice when I start to walk away
But you will notice when you hear me play
No he will never,
No, she will never,
No, she will never be me
