Even Though

Marcie

When you first told me you loved me

I was more than just a little bit surprised

But then you left and I realized

There was something about you

Something, so that I couldn’t live without you

And even though you’re just a little bit pretentious

Even though you’re more traditional than my dad

Even though you drove me crazy from hello

You touch a part of me I didn’t even know I had

And so, I need to say I want you anyway

I want you anyway

Even though this might not be the perfect way to tell you

But, perfection never was what I did best

To months ago, I never would have guessed

That I’d compare to “you know who”

But now I know I belong with you

And even though I think you’re way of life is different

Even though there’s not a single thing we share

Even though you’re not like anyone I know

You take me to a place I didn’t even know was there

And so, I need to say I choose you anyway

I choose you anyway

Even though the night when I first met you

You were freakish

Now look at us, we both have come so far

You’re not different

I’m not different

But, it’s all together different

‘Cause I love you in spite of who you are

And even though you’re so much paler than my dream man

Even though you’re such a dork and I don’t feel the way I should

Even though I should stop, well here I go

I love you in a way I didn’t even know I could

And so, I need to say I love you anyway

I love you anyway

Even though
