There’s always going to be girls that sit in the car for an extra few minutes to hear the chorus of her favorite song. There will always be girls who make you laugh even in your toughest times.

There’s always going to be girls that have hair that’s a little too crazy for anybody’s liking. There’s always going to be girls who find you attractive. There’s always going to be girls who have the same music taste as you. There’s always going to be girls like me, but you know what? There will never be a girl who loved you as much as I did.
