I love this song. Everyone I've played it for hates it, though. Maybe it will find an audience with you.
lyrics
When we first met, it hasn’t happened yet
But when I saw your name, my intrigue was whet
‘Cuz I thought that maybe you could be the one
The one who gives a shit about
What we play and who we are
Our very first fan from miles afar
I ask you, Analiza Valentin
To be my valentin.
You said some things, wanted to hear us sing
And when I saw your name, it damn well gave me wings
Our project was no longer just for fun.
‘Cause you’re way out there, behind the clouded air
And when I saw your name, I felt a heart might tear
If I found out you were not to be the one
The one who gives a shit about
Where we’re from and what we do
Whose only interest is Kim Chiu
I say to you, Analiza Valentin
Together we could win.
You say you’re under stress at bnvhs
But when I saw your name, I just knew, I just knew, how in check your priorities were
They may call me a nerd but I know, yes I know that I’m really a wreck
And I need someone, could you be someone
Could you be the one who makes me feel like
Someone gives a shit about
Our favorite color, favorite food
Whether style’s inspired by subject or mood
Whether or not our music is good
Give an honest opinion without being rude
Now don’t give me that attitude
I say to you, Analiza Valentin
You were my only friend.
