"This Song" lyrics

You know that I love you
And I have a feeling that you love me back
We're sat in my bedroom
And I hear your heart like a train on the tracks
Your eyes are like heaven, your voice is like rain
Eleven-elevens, they all hear your name
I'm too shy to tell you the words on my mind
I hope you can see if you read through these lines

That I wrote this song about you
Something I wish you knew
Something I've tried to say
But now I'll say it straight
I wrote this song about you

We drive through the suburbs
And you're playing all of your favorite songs
You joke 'bout your mother
She can't help but cry when she hears Elton John
You're singing obnoxious, I'm laughing like spring
Your brown racer jacket, my hands through the sleeves
The smell of your perfume is all over me
I can't wash it off, so it's easy to see

That I wrote this song about you
Something I wish you knew
Something I've tried to say
But now I'll say it straight
I wrote this song about you

You know that I love you
Is it dumb believing you might love me too?
Yeah

I wrote this song about you
I wrote this song about you
Now you know that I love you
