CJennGy, I could love you if you’d Clet Gme
I know your world’s a little Cheavy
But Gmaybe we could Dgo back to the start
Just like that Cone Gtime
Tellin’ secrets in the CsunsGhine
Whatever happened to the Clight in your Geyes,
now it’s Ddark.
Why does love gotta be so Chard?G  D

GWith a boy that she Cadd9barely knows,
She lEmays down her Dsoul
