Prove It

[verse 1]

You could send me flowers.

Text me poetry for hours.

Even write a sappy song,

I'm not saying it'd be wrong.

You could call me when i'm sick

To chat about a chick flick,

Then tell me something tough

But i won't believe it's love

Until you prove it to my dad.

Oh yeah

[chorus]

'cause he's already loved me for better and for worse

He makes it easy to identify a jerk

He knows how i like make-believe

He always helps me see what i really need.

[verse 2]

You could say i'm like no other

Become best buddies with my brother

Notice when i cut my hair

Let me win when it's not fair

Then pretend that you don't care.

Promise me you'll always be there

But your word is not enough

And i won't believe it's love

Until you prove it to my dad

[chorus]

'cause he's already loved me for better and for worse

He makes it easy to identify a jerk

He knows how i like make-believe

He always helps me see what i really need.

[bridge: francis chan]

I haven't been perfect but i've done my best

Through your good times, your bad times, your pms

With boys sometimes you lose your common sense

So i'm always going to throw in my two cents

They'll tell you all these things that you want to hear.

They'll pretend that they love you but they really don't care

But i taught you how to walk and i've cried with you

I taught you how to drive! i had to ride with you!

When your hair looked bad i even lied to you!

You're mine until the day i walk the aisle with you.

And if some guy wants to try for you,

And he thinks he can provide for you.

I'll let go. i've just got to know he, too, would die for you.

[chorus]

'cause he's already loved me for better and for worse

He makes it easy to identify a jerk

He knows how i like make-believe

He always helps me see what i really need.

[x2]

So don't call me when i'm sick.
