Analysis of The Simple Things



She has this thing, this presence

You know, this abillity to make you smile
At any time of day,
The abillity to make ya run a mile
just so your not so far away,

She gives you this sense of belief,
This will to fly you high,
Because when she gives you that smile,
She sends you to the skies,

She brings out the best of me,
Even when she doesn't try,
Because she's so special,
I would never tell a lie,

She does this thing,
Where she messes with your nose,
I love her so,
She is my twinkle toes
